Case description

This video demonstrates the pinning of a slipped capital femoral epiphysis performed by Doug Wallace, MD at Rady Childrens Hospital in San Diego. Internal fixation is used in hip fracture repair. It involves stabilizing broken bones with surgical screws, nails, rods, or plates. This type of surgery is usually for people who have fractures in which the bones can be properly aligned. This may also be called "hip pinning."
