The Limping Child - What a Pediatrician Should Know?

Dominic O'Dowd1, James Alfred Fernandes2.   

Abstract

Diagnosis of a limping child can be challenging for the clinician given the vast array of conditions that present in this manner. This review article discusses the history, examination and subsequent differential diagnoses that should be considered along with the most appropriate investigations for each diagnosis. The latest evidence regarding choice of investigation to make the clinician's task less onerous is also discussed.
