Abstract
Slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE) is a slippage of the femoral epiphysis (femoral head) on the femoral neck. Femoral epiphysis usually slips backward and inward because of body weight. This disorder mainly occurs during puberty. We report the very rare case of a child with cerebral palsy associated with spasticity of the limbs.Entities:
