Although the use of a clinical prediction algorithm to differentiate between septic arthritis and transient synovitis may have improved the utility of existing technology and medical care to facilitate the diagnosis at the institution at which the algorithm originated, application of the algorithm does not appear to be valid at other institutions.

This study retrospectively reviewed the cases of children who were evaluated at a major tertiary-care children's hospital between 1979 and 1996 and constructed a set of independent multivariate predictors that had excellent diagnostic performance in differentiating between septic arthritis and transient synovitis of the hip in children.

The results showed that the prognosis is worse in young children and also in cases with associated osteomyelitis of the proximal femur, and the necessity for early diagnosis and treatment is reemphasized.

Following infantile septic arthritis, the proximal femur may remain cartilaginous during the first years of life and a trochanteric arthroplasty seems the procedure of choice followed by a varus osteotomy if there is progressive subluxation.

The authors suggest that in regions where Lyme disease is endemic, children who present with presumed septic arthritis should also be evaluated for Lyme disease.
