Bone scans from 43 children referred with hip pain of uncertain cause were reviewed. The bone scan was abnormal in 36 patients: normal in 7. In 12 the findings were diagnostic: osteomyelitis, osteoid osteoma, osteomyelitis with septic arthritis, Perthes' Disease and juvenile chronic arthritis. Twenty-four patients had abnormal scans including diffuse peri-articular increase and of these 18 had transient synovitis. Immobilisation and trauma accounted for the remainder. Isotope bone scans have been found to be a valuable investigation in children presenting with hip pain or limp, where the x-rays may appear normal or nondiagnostic.
