We reviewed the cases of 38 children with 45 congenitally dislocated hips who presented for primary treatment after the age of three years. Of these, 34 hips were managed by the 'direct approach' of Somerville and Scott (1957); 14 of these required secondary operations for subluxation, often with a poor outcome. Eleven hips were treated by combined pelvic and femoral osteotomy which, in general, gave good results. At a mean follow-up of 16.7 years, 80% of the whole series had a good or excellent clinical result and 51% were good or excellent radiologically. Simultaneous correction both above and below the hip is considered to be the best treatment for the older child with congenital hip dislocation. |
