FRAGMENTO
DEFINICIÓN
La enfermedad de Legg-Calve y Perthes es un síndrome, en el cual eventos repetidos de isquemia afectan la epífisis proximal del fémur (cabeza femoral). Como resultado de estos eventos isquémicos el crecimiento del centro secundario de osificación, se altera y el hueso se vuelve denso (necrótico). Este hueso denso es luego reabsorbido y reemplazado por hueso nuevo. Mientras que sucede este proceso las propiedades mecánicas del hueso se alteran y la cabeza femoral tiende a aplanarse y agrandarse (Coxa Plana y Magna). Posteriormente la cabeza femoral tiende a remodelar hasta llegar a la madurez esquelética.
