[Bilateral recurrent anterior dislocation of the hip (author's transl)]. 1980

P Vichard, and B Bouffier, and A Noir, and D Arnould

The authors report a case of bilateral recurrent anterior dislocation of the hip in a child suffering from Seckel's disease (bird-headed dwarf). There were no neurological abnormalities. The dislocations appeared to relate to coxa valga and dysplastic acetabula. Femoral osteotomies together with a shelf procedure were performed. The dislocations had ceased when the child was reviewed in a two-year follow-up.
