Clinical consensus recommendations for the non-surgical treatment of children with Perthes’ disease in the UK

Abstract

Children's orthopaedic specialists have reached consensus on recommendations for non-surgical treatment in Perthes' disease. These statements will support decisions made in clinical practice and act as a foundation to support clinicians in the absence of robust evidence. The dissemination of these findings and the best way of delivering this care needs careful consideration, which we will continue to explore.
