Abstract
High prevalence of acetabular retroversion in both affected and unaffected hips after Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease was demonstrated. Symmetric acetabular deformity and the coexistence of prominence of the ischial spine suggested the effects of the Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease lesions on the skeletal development of the whole pelvis. Further follow-up is needed to clarify the pathological significance of acetabular retroversion after Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease.
