Developmental hip dysplasia and dislocation: Part I

Stuart L Weinstein et al. Instr Course Lect. 2004.

Abstract

A thorough knowledge of the normal growth and development of the hip, the causes of abnormal development, and the structural and functional changes that result from developmental hip dysplasia and dislocation provide needed information for treating these conditions. Ultrasonography, newborn screening, and radiographic evaluation are important diagnostic tools.
