The hip in arthrogryposis.
نویسنده
چکیده
PATHOLOGY Hip dislocation is seen in approximately 30 % of children with amyoplasia and approximately 50 % of these will be bilateral. TREATMENT Closed reduction is rarely successful. Open reduction is indicated for unilateral dislocations and for the majority of bilateral dislocations. Reduction is recommended via a medial approach. RESULTS A long-term satisfactory outcome can be achieved but with some loss of hip range of movement.

It is widely believed that bilaterally dislocated hips should not be reduced since movement is satisfactory and open reduction has had poor results. Since 1977 we have performed a new method of open reduction using an extensive anterolateral approach on ten hips in five children with AMC. The mean age a...

The more common variety occurs at or shortly after birth. Therefore, in the common variety the acetabulum is well formed with secondary changes developing rapidly if the hip remains dislocated (13). Trueta (17) states that the latter oug...
