Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) can occur after slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE) regardless of slip severity and even after in situ pinning. These patients represent a rare and unique demographic that is largely unreported on. It is important to further characterize the clinical presentation of these patients, associated treatment modalities, and the efficacy of these treatment modalities.
