Division of Orthopaedics, King Khalid University Hospital, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

Twenty paediatric patients with congenital dislocation of the hip were treated with a modification of the classic technique of Salter's osteotomy. Along with open reduction and femoral shortening osteotomy, the resected femoral segment, which measured 10-40 mm in width (mean 16 mm), was used to stabilize the Salter's osteotomy. The patients were aged between 2 and 9 years (mean 3.8 years). After a mean follow-up of 16 months (range 6-60 months) all patients had full bone healing and complete incorporation of femoral bone graft with the acetabulum. No patient had re-dislocation, subluxation or displacement of the graft.

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.
