    [Our ideas for treatment of dislocated dysplastic hip in early childhood].

    [Article in German]

    Abstract

    The early diagnosis and treatment of congenital dislocation of the hip cannot prevent the manifestation of luxation in every case. The following operative treatment should include not only the open reposition, but also all deformities of the upper femur and the acetabulum. This combined procedure is already possible in the infancy starting from the 6th month. The correction of increased antetorsion and CCD-angle alone respectively the increased acetabular angle is not indicated. The spontaneous normalization of the not operated part of the hip can be find only in a minimal part of cases. The stabilization of bone defect in the acetabuloplastic by Dega is performed by allogenic deep frozen cortico-cancellous bone grafts successfully.
