Femoral anteversion does not predict redislocation in children with hip dysplasia treated by closed reduction
2018
Purpose
Increased femoral anteversion can be associated with hip instability, redislocation after closed reduction, and subsequent early degenerative arthritis.
Our study compared proximal femoral anteversion of affected and unaffected sides of patients with unilateral developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) on two-dimensional computed tomography. The primary aim was to evaluate whether femoral anteversion at the time of treatment affected the outcome of patients with unilateral DDH treated by closed reduction.
