Summary:Objective Correction of post-LCP (Legg–Calve–Perthes) morphology using surgical hip dislocation with retinacular flap and relative femoral neck lengthening for impingent correction reduces the risk of early arthritis and improves the survival of the native hip joint. Indications Typical post-LCP deformity with external and internal hip impingement due to aspherical enlarged femoral head and shortened femoral neck with high riding trochanter major without advanced osteoarthritis (Tönnis classification ≤ 1) in the younger patient (age
