PY - 2017 T2 - Comprehensive Pediatric Hospital Medicine, 2e AB - Musculoskeletal complaints account for a significant number of outpatient visits to the pediatrician—up to 10% of non–well-child appointments in some studies. Only a minority of these visits result in hospitalization, but in many cases, even these admissions could have been avoided if a logical, stepwise approach to evaluation and management had been used. This chapter focuses on the entities to consider in a limping child and the appropriate approaches to take with regard to the history, physical examination, and diagnosis.
