TRANSPOSITION OF THE ACETABULUM AFTER TRIPLE PELVIC OSTEOTOMY IN THE TREATMENT OF CHILDREN WITH HIP DYSPLASIA

Purpose - effectiveness assessment of 500 acetabular transpositions after triple pelvic osteotomy in the treatment of children and adolescents with dysplastic hip joint pathology. Materials and methods. Using clinical, radiographic and computed tomography techniques we analyzed long-term results of surgical treatment of 470 patients with impaired stability of the hip of dysplastic genesis aged 4-19 y.o. who underwent 500 acetabular transpositions after triple pelvic osteotomy. Results and conclusions. The use of acetabular transposition after triple pelvic osteotomy in patients with dysplastic hip joint pathology in most cases allows to achieve regression of clinical manifestations and degenerative changes in patients with stage I and II of dysplastic coxarthrosis. Effectiveness largely depends on the initial state of the hip joint.
