PEREIRA, Cátia; PINTO, Marta e SANT'ANNA, Francisco. Developmental dysplasia of the hip: in the pediatrician view. Nascer e Crescer [online]. 2016, vol.25, n.4, pp.239-240. ISSN 0872-0754.
Introduction: Developmental dysplasia of the hip is a common disease and if not treated timely can evolve to hip arthrosis and arthroplasty. Objective: The article attempts to review the terminology, epidemiology, risk factors, clinical presentation, complementary exams, treatment and prognosis of developmental dysplasia of the hip. Development: Routine screening based on clinical findings and risk factors allows early diagnosis and referral to a pediatric orthopedic surgeon. Conclusion: The early diagnosis of the developmental dysplasia of the hip is associated with less invasive and more effective treatments and a better prognosis.
