Özet

Proximal femoral focal deficiency (PFFD) is a developmental disorder of the proximal segment of the femur and acetabulum, resulting in shortening of the affected limb and impairment of the function. It is a spectrum of congenital osseous anomalies characterized by a deficiency in the structure of the proximal femur.
