Introduction

Hip dysplasia is the most common congenital deformity of the musculoskeletal system. This is a pathology that brings the hip joint from subluxation to dislocation.

Frequency of hip dysplasia − 16 children per 1000 newborns.

Materials and Methods

Diagnostic methods of research are X-ray inspection which is necessarily carried out at internal rotation (rotation) of an extremity as lateral rotation of a hip on the radiograph always increases an angle of a valgus deviation of a neck. Surgical treatment is performed in the subclavian area of the femur. An external fixation device is applied and a corrective corticotomy is performed, and valgus deformity and anteversion are eliminated. The duration of treatment is 2.5–3 months.
