Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip
Conditions
Brief summary
This study aims to present our arthroscopic-assisted surgical technique's reliability as a successful treatment for DDH, achieving reduction without the potential sequelae associated with open reduction techniques.
Detailed description
Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) encompasses a spectrum of pathological conditions including dislocation, subluxation, and deformities of the femoral head and acetabulum. The optimal surgical approach for DDH remains a subject of debate. The goal of successful treatment is achieving a stable concentric reduction and preventing future subluxation or dislocation.The aim of this study is to introduce the reliability of our arthroscopic-assisted surgical technique as a successful treatment for DDH that can achieve reduction with avoidance of sequelae which may be experienced following open reduction techniques.
Interventions
The arthroscopic-assisted reduction was used as a one-stage operative treatment for all hips. In addition to that, Dega pelvic osteotomy and/or femoral shortening and varus derotation osteotomies were performed when necessary.
