Traumatic posterior hip dislocation is an uncommon injury in children, constituting less than 5% of paediatric dislocations. In a younger child (less than 5 years), minor trauma such as a slip or fall from a low height may cause a hip dislocation, whereas in an adolescent a dislocation is usually caused by a major trauma such as motor vehicle accident. In this case report we present a rare case of traumatic hip dislocation in a 16-month-old girl. Early detection and closed reduction ensured good outcome in our case. A high index of suspicion is necessary to achieve satisfactory reduction within six hours of dislocation because reduction after this period will greatly increase the risk of complications.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the methods of restoring normal level of rotation center of the hip and limb length in patients with osteoarthritis (OA) secondary to developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) using total hip arthroplasty (THA).
METHODSFrom January 2000 to January 2003, total hip arthroplasties were performed for 21 patients (26 hips) with OA secondary to DDH. There were 19 females and 2 males with an average age of 51 years (range from 40 to 66 years). Based on radiographic classification of Crowe, there were 12 in type I, 5 in type II, 2 in type III and IV respectively. In addition to the standard procedure of THA, the methods of restoring normal level of rotating center of the hip included structural bone autografting and medialization of the cup. The methods of limb length restoration included carefully preoperative planning and intraoperative soft tissue release. During the follow-up period at 3, 6, 12 months postoperatively and then annually thereafter, rotation center of the hip and limb length were assessed radiographically. Harris score system (HSS) was used for clinical evaluation.
RESULTSAll the patients were followed up for a mean time of 26.4 months (range from 12 to 48 months). All the patients had restoration of the normal level of rotation center of the hip. At the latest follow-up, Harris score was improved from preoperative 35 points (range from 12 to 68 points) to postoperative 94 points (range from 74 to 100 points).
CONCLUSIONIn addition to standard procedure, the restoration of normal level of rotation center of the hip could be achieved by structural bone autografting and medialization of the cup in THA for patients with DDH. Careful preoperative planning and intraoperative soft tissue release could restore limb length.

Clinics in Orthopedic Surgery 2014;6(2):127-137
Curved periacetabular osteotomy (CPO) was developed for the treatment of dysplastic hips in 1995. In CPO, the exposure of osteotomy sites and osteotomy of the ischium are made in the same manner as Bernese periacetabular osteotomy, and iliac and pubic osteotomies are performed in the same manner as rotational acetabular osteotomy. We studied the dynamic instabilities of 25 dysplastic hips before and after CPO using triaxial accelerometry. Overall magnitude of acceleration was significantly decreased from 2.30 +/- 0.57 m/sec2 preoperatively to 1.55 +/- 0.31 m/sec2 postoperatively. Pain relief and improvement of acetabular coverage resulting from acetabular reorientation seem to be related with reduction of dynamic instabilities of dysplastic hips. Isokinetic muscle strengths of 24 hips in 22 patients were measured preoperatively and after CPO. At 12 months postoperatively, the mean muscle strength exceeded the preoperative values. These results seem to be obtained due to no dissection of abductor muscles in CPO. The preoperative presence of acetabular cysts did not influence the results of CPO. An adequate rotation of the acetabular fragment induced cyst remodeling. Satisfactory results were obtained clinically and radiographically after CPO in patients aged 50 years or older. CPO alone for the treatment of severe dysplastic hips classified as subluxated hips of Severin group IV-b with preoperative CE angles of up to -20degrees could restore the acetabular coverage, weight-bearing area and medialization of the hip joint. CPO without any other combined procedure, as a treatment for 17 hips in 16 patients with Perthes-like deformities, produced good mid-term clinical and radiographic results. We have been performing CPO in conjunction with osteochondroplasty for the treatment of acatabular dysplasia associated with femoroacetabular impingement since 2006. The combined procedure has been providing effective correction of both acetabular dysplasia and associated femoral head-neck deformities without any increased complication rate. We have encountered an obturator artery injury in one case and two intraoperative comminuted fractures. Although serious complications such as motor nerve palsy, deep infection, necrosis of the femoral head or acetabulum, and delayed union or nonunion of the ilium were reported, such complications have never occurred in our 700 cases so far.

OBJECTIVETo assess the effect of total hip replacement on lumbago in patients with unilaterally developmental hip dysplasia.
METHODSFrom January 2001 to January 2006, 39 adult patients with unilateral developmental hip dysplasia co-exiting lumbago were included. Among them, there were 32 females and 7 males, age from 38 years to 73 years. According to Crowe classification system, there were 4 in type I, 20 in type II,8 in type III and 7 in type IV. They were performed total hip replacement. The Harris Hip Score and the Oswestry Disability Index were used to evaluate hip and spine symptoms in same patient before and 3, 24 months after operation.
RESULTSThirty-nine patients were evaluated, both hip and spinal pain and function were significant improved. The mean Harris score increased from 44 to 84 (P < 0.01). The mean Oswestry Scores dropped from 36 to 25 (P < 0.01).
CONCLUSIONSpinal function and lumbago is improved after total hip replacement in patients with unilateral developmental hip dysplasia at 3 months, which is maintained and enhanced in 2 years.

OBJECTIVESTo discuss the methods and outcome of shorting proximal femoral and total hip arthroplasty for Crowe IV dysplastic hip of adults.
METHODSFrom July 2000 to February 2006, 13 cases of osteoarthritis secondary to severe development dysplastic hip were treated by total hip replacement and the shorting proximal femoral.
RESULTSThe duration of follow-up ranged from 4 months to 55 months. The average score increased from 36.9 to 84.1 points after the surgery according to Harris. All the patients could walk independently. Their paces were improved obviously and the function of their hips was satisfactory.
CONCLUSIONSThe treatment by total hip arthroplasty and the shorting of posterior femoral is effective and efficient for osteoarthritis secondary to Crowe IV development dysplastic hip in adults. The long-term followup is necessary for further study.

OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the surgical techniques and clinical outcomes of total hip replacement for patients with end-stage osteoarthritis secondary to developmental dysplasia of the hip.
METHODS:
From May 2004 to March 2008, a total of 36 total hip replacements were performed in 32 patients with end-stage osteoarthritis secondary to developmental dysplasia of the hip. The acetabulum cup was reconstructed in the corresponding anatomical position in all cases. Cemented components were used in 16 hips, and cementless components in the other 20 hips. The mean follow-up was 31.3 months. Clinical outcomes were determined with Harris hip score. Radiographs were taken after the surgery and in every follow-up examination for further reference.
RESULTS:
All patients postoperatively gained a limb lengthening with an average of (3.4+/-1.3) cm. Three patients had complications, 2 had nondisplaced fractures of the proximal part of the femur,and 1 sciatic nerve palsy which disappeared after 3 months. There was no infection, dislocation and symptomatic deep vein thrombosis. Compared with preoperation, the mean Harris hip scores on the 3rd day, the 14th day after the operation and at the last follow-up were all improved significantly (all P<0.05). There was no loosening, migration, heterotopic ossification radiographically, and no revision during the follow-up.
CONCLUSION
Total hip replacement is an effective treatment for patients with end-stage osteoarthritis secondary to developmental dysplasia of the hip. The key is to place the acetabulum cup in the corresponding anatomical position, and choose proper prosthesises during the surgery.

OBJECTIVETo retrospectively compare the therapeutic effects of simple Pemberton's ilium osteotomy and combined unter-trochanter derotation-varisation osteotomy for developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH).
METHODSClinical data of 141 DDH patients who received either simple Pemberton's ilium osteotomy (n=57; 12 male and 45 female; age range 3-8 years) or combined unter-trochanter derotation-varisation osteotomy (n=84; 15 male and 69 female; age range 4-9 years) from January 2004 to January 2009 were collected. Postoperative complications, Severin's radiological outcomes and therapeutic outcomes as evaluated by Mcay criteria were compared between the two groups 2 years after operation.
RESULTSThe patients in simple Pemberton group were followed-up for 30-52 months (mean 38 months) and the patients in the combination group were followed-up for 32-51 months (mean 37 months). There were 7 cases of dislocation, 4 cases of avescular necrosis of femoral head and 5 cases of joint stiffness in simple Pemberton group vs 0 case of dislocation, contraction of the limb and ANFH,2 cases of joint stiffness in the combination group. Two years after surgery, the result as evaluated by McKay criteria was excellent in 27 cases, good in 18 cases and fair in 12 cases in simple Pemberton group vs. 52, 25 and 7 cases in the combination group. The overall clinical outcome in the combination group was better than that in simple Pemberton group. Severin X-ray evaluation showed excellent in 27 cases, good in 15 cases and fair in 15 cases in simple Pemberton group vs. 53, 22 and 9 cases in the combination group,indicating that the overall result in the combination group was better than that in simple Pemberton group.
CONCLUSIONThe overall clinical outcome of the combination group is better than that of simple Pemberton group in the treatment of pediatric DDH, especially in reducing postoperative complications and functional recovery. The patients in the combination group reported a higher postoperative satisfaction as compared with those in simple Pemberton group.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical and radiological results of total hip arthroplasty using a proximal modular femoral stem in patients who had secondary coxarthrosis associated with a dysplastic hip. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Forty-two patients (45 hips) with secondary coxarthrosis were evaluated after undergoing primary total hip arthroplasty using an S-ROM proximal modular femoral stem. The average follow-up was 80 months (range: 60 to 96 months). Clinical and radiological assessments were performed based on the Harris hip score and the radiological changes around the prosthesis. RESULTS: The average Harris hip score improved from 52.2 points to 88.5 points. All femoral stems showed stable fixation; there were 37 cases by bony ingrowth and 8 cases by stable fibrous ingrowth. Neither osteolysis nor progressive radiolucent lines around the femoral stem were found at the last follow-up. Forty-one hips (91.9%) revealed excellent or good clinical results at the most recent follow-up. CONCLUSION: For advanced secondary coxarthrosis, total hip arthroplasty with the use of the proximal modular femoral stem yielded good mid-term results with respect to the clinical and radiological criteria.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the clinical effects of total hip arthroplasty (THA) for Crowe type IV developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) and analyze perioperative complications.
METHODSFrom March 2000 to March 2010, 19 patients (23 hips, of them, 4 patients with bilateral hips) with Crowe type IV DDH underwent THA. There were 5 males and 14 females, with average age of 61.3 years (ranged, 41 to 72 years). All hips were treated with small acetabular components combined with medial protrusion technique in acetabular reconstruction, as well as subtrochanteric shortening osteotomy in femur. Joint function of hips were evaluated according to Harris scoring.
RESULTSAll patients were followed up with an average of 4.2 years (ranged, 1 to 8 years). Postoperative X-ray films showed all acetabular prosthesis were in true acetabulum. No loosening and nonunion were found in all patients. Harris scoring improved from preoperative 34.0 +/- 6.9 to postoperative 85.0 +/- 7.5. Complications occurred in 11 cases in the patients, including femoral split fracture in 3 cases, nerve injury in 3 cases, delayed union in 2 cases, dislocation in 3 cases.
CONCLUSIONTotal hip arthroplasty using small acetabular component, medial protrusion, femoral subtrochanteric shortening osteotomy technique for the Crowe type IV DDH can effectively restore hip function and leg length. But incidence of complications is high. The long-term follow-up is necessary for further study.
