Between 1971 and 1985, 30 children (35 hips) with premature closure of the subcapital growth plate were treated with trochanteric advancement. After 6 (3-8) years, 25 children (30 hips) were reviewed. Of the 30 hips, 27 had had one or more operations before the trochanteric advancement. All the trochanters fused without complication. Trendelenburg's sign was positive in 24 hips preoperatively and became negative postoperatively. The hip abduction was increased in 28 of the 30 hips reviewed.
