(2) The incidence of major complications especially AVN. (3) Clinical outcome with recording the range of motion of the hip and evaluating short-term clinical scores (Merle d{u2019}Aubigne{u00B4}-Harris hip score -WOMAC). (4) The extent of intra-articular damage and relating this to clinical stability and symptom duration. (5) Comparing our results to what was reported in the literature. Patients and Methods: This prospective case series study included thirty-one patients (32 hips, 21 Lt hip and 11 Rt hip) with stable chronic slipped capital femoral epiphysis after surgical correction with a modified Dunn procedure ER -
