ResumoABSTRACT: Thirty patients with 36 slipped capital femoral epiphysis underwent pinning with a single cannulated screw. All patients were pinned in situ, allowed immediate weight bearing as tolerated, discontinued crutches at 6 weeks, and had a minimum of 1 year follow up (average 21 months). One patient had avascular necrosis, one patient had bilateral chondrolysis, and two patients required repinning.
