Abstract
1. The results of thirty-five acutely slipped upper femoral epiphyses, treated from 1950 to 1969, are presented. Avascular necrosis of the femoral head occurred in five cases. 2. Skin traction with medial rotation, followed in three to four days by internal fixation, without further manipulation, is recommended so that this iatrogenic complication may be avoided.
