Divergent opinions about the pathophysiology and the optimal time and methods for the treatment of Legg-Calvé-Perthes (LCP) disease exist. Synovitis causing restriction of hip motions may be hazardous to the circulation to the femoral head. We studied 23 children (24 hips) in the initial phase of LCP disease. Seven to 14 days of Russell traction decreased the intraosseous pressure significantly (p less than 0.001) and increased the hip motion a mean of 33.6 degrees. As assessed by osteovenography, the venous congestion decreased in almost every hip during Russell traction.
关于Legg-Calvé-Perthes（LCP）病的病理生理学、最佳治疗时间和方法存在不同意见。导致髋关节活动受限的滑膜炎可能对股骨头的血液循环有害。我们研究了23名处于LCP病初始阶段的儿童（24个髋关节）。7至14天的Russell牵引显著降低了骨内压（p<0.001），并使髋关节活动平均增加了33.6度。通过骨静脉造影评估，在Russell牵引期间几乎每个髋关节的静脉淤血都有所减轻。
