Step 3 – Stabilization Guide 
Wire Insertion

When treating unstable (acute) 
slips 
a Guide Wire may be used.
Using biplanar floroscopy, it is inserted
percutaneously in the trochanteric
region into the femoral neck and 
head for intraoperative stabilization.

The remodelling is therefore ossified and reduction is not possible The stable slip is pinned with the intention of preventing further slippage as well as preventing the possibility of acute on chronic traumatic changes which could be devastating for the vascularization of the femoral head The surgical treatment of a stable slip can therefore be planned in advance but must be considered urgent Fi...
