The syndrome of transient osteopaenia of the hip is described in children for the first time. Six children 6-12 years of age are presented with follow-up between 1 and 4 years. The presenting symptoms, clinical signs, investigations, and radiologic changes are described, together with the findings at arthrotomy of the affected joints. This syndrome in children closely parallels that described in adults, but, presumably because of growth potential, enlargement of the affected bones occurred in two patients. Management, with emphasis on excluding more sinister pathology and avoiding excessive treatment, is outlined. The fact that the syndrome is characterised by spontaneous resolution is stressed.
首次在儿童中描述了髋关节短暂性骨质减少综合征。报告了6名6至12岁儿童，随访时间为1至4年。描述了其出现的症状、临床体征、检查、放射学变化，以及受影响关节的关节切开术所见。儿童中的这种综合征与成人中描述的综合征非常相似，但可能由于生长潜力，两名患者出现了受累骨骼增大的情况。概述了管理方法，重点是排除更严重的病理情况并避免过度治疗。强调了该综合征以自发缓解为特征这一事实。
