Bilateral epiphyseometaphyseal cupping of the distal femoral epiphysis occurred in a 9-year-old girl with a history of infantile scurvy. This rare condition is characterized by a cup-shaped depression of the metaphyseal end, growth disturbance at the distal femoral epiphysis and knee flexion contracture which develops slowly over many years of bone growth. Conservative treatment by corrective plasters and back slabs brought about recovery of the right knee flexion contracture and halted the growth disturbance. However, in the left knee, extension supracondylar femoral osteotomies had to be performed and severe growth disturbance of the distal femoral epiphysis led to premature epiphyseal fusion.
一名患有婴儿坏血病病史的9岁女孩出现双侧股骨远端骨骺干骺端杯状畸形。这种罕见病症的特征是干骺端呈杯状凹陷、股骨远端骨骺生长紊乱以及在多年骨骼生长过程中缓慢发展的膝关节屈曲挛缩。通过矫正石膏和支具进行保守治疗，使右膝屈曲挛缩恢复，并阻止了生长紊乱。然而，左膝不得不进行股骨髁上截骨术，且股骨远端骨骺严重的生长紊乱导致骨骺过早融合。
