For many years Legg-Calvé-Perthes’ disease has been, and still is, an outstanding problem in the field of orthopaedic surgery because of the discomfort, mental anguish and prolonged convalescence it imposes. It is a problem also because of pain, deformity and disability which it frequently produces during early or middle adult life. Although considerable has been written on Legg-Calvé-Perthes’ disease, very little has been done to investigate the possible etiological factors which may initiate it.
