Slipped capital femoral epiphysis in an adolescent with congenital adrenal hyperplasia: A case report

Abstract

Key Clinical Message In previous reports, hypothyroidism, hypopituitrism, and hypogonadism were common endocrine causes of SCFE, but this is the first time that congenital adrenal hyperplasia has been observed. As such, patients who have undergone long‐term endocrine treatment for congenital adrenal hyperplasia could potentially be subjected to a higher risk for SCFE.
