Hip fractures account for fewer than 1% of all fractures in children, and many can be successfully treated nonoperatively. Transepiphyseal, transcervical, and displaced cervicotrochanteric fractures, however, generally require closed reduction or open reduction and internal fixation to avoid complications of coxa vara deformity and nonunion. Avascular necrosis appears to be related to the severity of the initial injury and unaffected by treatment.
髋部骨折在儿童所有骨折中所占比例不到1%，许多骨折可以通过非手术方法成功治疗。然而，经骨骺、经颈和移位的颈转子间骨折通常需要闭合复位或切开复位内固定，以避免出现髋内翻畸形和骨不连等并发症。缺血性坏死似乎与初始损伤的严重程度有关，且不受治疗的影响。
