Definition Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is a spectrum of disorders of development of the hip that present in different forms at different ages 2
Definition 3
Epidemiology R anged from a low of 1 per 1000 to a high of 3.4 per 100. M ore common in females (6:1) M ore commonly in Native Americans ïƒ due to cultural traditions such as swaddling with hips together in extension More often in left side 4
Etiology 6 Postnatal Positioning ïƒ wrap their newborn babies in a hipextended position Racial Predilection ïƒ whites and Native Americans
Normal Hip Development 7
Patophysiology of DDH 8
Clinical Manifestation L imited abduction in the infant A symmetric gait , painless limp in the toddler H ip pain in adolescence O steoarthritis in the adult S hortened lower extremity O ne-sided toe-walking If the condition is bilateral ïƒ swayback appearance , walk with a waddle 9
Physical Examination 10
Physical Examination in Neonates Barlow Test 11 Ortolani Test
Physical Examination in Infant Limited abduction 12 Galeazzi Sign
Physical Examination in Infant Asymmetry 13 Klisic Sign A, With a normal hip, an imaginary line drawn between the two fingers points to the umbilicus. B, When the hip is dislocated, the trochanter is elevated, and the line projects halfway between the umbilicus and the pubis.
Physical Examination in Walking Child Tredelenburg Gait 14 Excessive lordosis
Imaging Radiograph of Pelvis 15 USG MRI Arthrography
Radiographic Finding Measurement of alpha and beta angles to establish Graf class 16
Radiographic Finding Measurement of Acetabular indeks, Hilgenreinerline line, The Wilberg center–edge angle , Shenton line, Perkin line 17
