OBJECTIVE How has the Congenital Dislocation of the Hip (CDH) developed in the last 7 years concerning frequency, time of diagnosis and therapy? METHODS Retrospective analysis of hospital reports, ultrasound- and X-ray images of children treated with CDH in the University Hospital. RESULTS From 1. 1. 1991 to 31. 12. 1997 21 children with 28 dislocated hips were treated. The number of dislocated hips per anno is less than in a former study. In 17 children the diagnosis was found by ultrasound. The diagnosis was made within the first week of life in 8 children. In 9 dislocated hips, open reduction was necessary; in 7 of these 9 joints, diagnosis was made in the first days of life. CONCLUSIONS Because of the distinct declination of CDH the "true" congenital dislocations, in which open reductions were often necessary, predominated.

D006618 Hip Dislocation, Congenital Congenital dislocation of the hip generally includes subluxation of the femoral head, acetabular dysplasia, and complete dislocation of the femoral head from the true acetabulum. This condition occurs in approximately 1 in 1000 live births and is more common in females than in males.
