Screening for hip dysplasia in congenital muscular torticollis: is physical exam enough?
PURPOSE An association between congenital muscular torticollis (CMT) and developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) has been established in the literature; however, whether the screening of patients with CMT for DDH requires hip imaging remains controversial. The purpose of this study is to determine (1) the coexistence rate of DDH requiring treatment in individuals with CMT and (2) if physical e...
متن کاملScreening for the Coexistence of Congenital Muscular Torticollis and Developmental Dysplasia of Hip
OBJECTIVE To investigate the coexistence rate and related factors of developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) and congenital muscular torticollis (CMT), and to determine whether ultrasonography (US) gives good value for screening of DDH in CMT. METHOD We prospectively examined 121 infants (73 males and 48 females) diagnosed with CMT to determine the incidence of DDH by US. We also assessed th...
متن کاملCongenital Muscular Torticollis: An Overview
Congenital Muscular Torticollis (CMT) is a congenital deformity characterized by unilateral shortening of the sternocleidomastoid muscle resulting in lateral inclination of the neck associated with contralateral torsion. It is a relatively common infantile deformity associated with typically favourable prognosis when early detected and treated. Although stretching exercises is still the most co...
متن کاملThe Utility of Ultrasonography for the Diagnosis of Developmental Dysplasia of Hip Joint in Congenital Muscular Torticollis
OBJECTIVE To determine whether a routine ultrasonography (US) is necessary for diagnosis of developmental dysplasia of hip (DDH), presenting with congenital muscular torticollis (CMT). METHODS Cases of 133 patients (81 males, 52 females) diagnosed as CMT were reviewed, retrospectively. We reviewed the medical charts and diagnostic examination. We also assessed the coincidence of CMT and DDH, ...
متن کاملClubfoot and Congenital Muscular Torticollis Prevalence in Children Diagnosed with Developmental Dysplasia of Hip: Review of 594 DDH Patients
Background: Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) refers to a spectrum of disease, including hips that are unstable, subluxated, dislocated, and/or has dysplastic acetabula. Feet deformities such as clubfoot were mentioned in the literature as associated congenital anomalies in DDH patient with variable results. Multiple studies reported the correlation between DDH and congenital muscular to...
