Ischemic or avascular necrosis of the hip is a serious complication of the treatment of developmental hip dysplasia. The degree of ischemic insult can be classified based on an understanding of the vascularity of the proximal femur. Physeal involvement and subsequent growth disturbance, producing late deformity of the proximal femur, can compromise long-term results. Early recognition of ischemic necrosis patterns can be helpful in planning further treatment.
