[The study reports on a case of habitual dislocation of the hip-joint in a 6-year-old girl (author's transl)]
Abstract
During the operative reposition the capsule was found extremely wide, and extended capsular fibrosis was exhibited. Resection of an ovoid capsular segment and a double capsular suture, secured by superfixation of the m. rectus tendon, resulted in a stabile hip-joint position.
