Overview
The prognosis for these conditions is very variable, and depends both on the anatomic site and on the time at which it is detected. In some osteochondroses, such as Sever's disease and Freiberg's infraction, the involved bone may heal in a relatively normal shape and leave the patient asymptomatic. On the contrary, Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease frequently results in a deformed femoral head that leads to arthritis and the need for joint replacement. Surgery to correct this problem is long, and can be very painful.
