DDH – New Developments and
Timeless Classics
The 59th Annual Edward T. Smith Orthopaedic Lectureship
Emerging Concepts in the Surgical Management of the Hip:
Deformity, Impingement and Fracture
DDH - - - Define Treatment Group
(by age)
Birth to 6 months? successful tx likely
w/splinting (Pavlik
harness)
Seven to 18/24 months? closed reduction possible
>18/24 months? open reduction preferred
DDH … Imaging Choice in 6wk old Infant?
Ultrasound –assess anatomy & stability up to 4-5 mos
old & monitor tx in Pavlik harness

Ultrasound more sensitive than x-ray

“…. maintaining the infant’s hip and knee in flexion,
abduction → reduction of the hip”
Pavlik Harness Tx
• Fit & check frequently
• Tx duration – until resolved on US

• Adductor tenotomy to widen the safe zone
• The safe zone assesses maximum ABD/ADD

Avoid Tight Reductions
The Worst Outcome Is AVN

“Unchanging” Essentials in Treating DDH
• Assure physiologic reduction of fem head w/in the true
acetabulum w/either Pavlik; closed reduction &/or open
reduction
Abduction >60
• Avoid circulatory embarrassment
− w/ closed reduction 2° to pressure
− w/open reduction direct injury
“Unchanging” Essentials in Treating DDH
• Correct residual dysplasia w/ re-directional pelvic (&
femoral) osteotomies - - - - and assure satisfactory
residual hip motion
