| Abstract: | Cylindrical biopsy specimens from the proximal femoral metaphysis were obtained in conjunction with surgery in 22 patients with Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease. The histopathological examination revealed fat necrosis, vascular proliferation, and focal fibrosis indicating previous episodes of ischemia. There was no correlation between the histopathological findings and the corresponding magnetic resonance images. |
