Idiopathic chondrolysis of the hip. A distinct clinical entity?

H van der Hoeven et al. Acta Orthop Scand. 1989 Dec.

Abstract

We report 4 cases of idiopathic chondrolysis of the hip in children, a rare disease. In several aspects, there was a close resemblance to classical pauciarticular juvenile chronic arthritis. Hence, we question the clinical entity denoted as idiopathic chondrolysis of the hip.
