Abstract
The association between asymmetric skin folds (ASFs) of the gluteal, groin, or thigh regions and ipsilateral developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) has not been elucidated yet. Why are ASFs formed in some infants with DDH? Do DDH-associated ASFs persist during childhood and adulthood? Is it possible for ASFs to emerge without DDH pathology? Three cases of acute and chronic hip pathology in adults are presented in an attempt to explain the formation and the natural history of ASFs in infants with DDH. It is suggested that ASFs are formed when the excess soft tissues of the thigh shrink over a short femur. On the other hand, ASFs disappear after the length of the thigh is restored and the soft tissues of the thigh are re-stretched. This telescoping mechanism of the formation and disappearance of ASFs is applicable regardless of the underlying hip pathology or the age of the patient.

Osteoarthritis Cartilage 2024; 32:869-880. [PMID: 38588889 DOI: 10.1016/j.joca.2024.03.118] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/26/2023] [Revised: 03/12/2024] [Accepted: 03/14/2024] [Indexed: 04/10/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the impact of oligohydramnios on fetal movement and hip development, given its association with developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) but unclear mechanisms. METHODS Chick embryos were divided into four groups based on the severity of oligohydramnios induced by amniotic fluid aspiration (control, 0.2 mL, 0.4 mL, 0.6 mL). Fetal movement was assessed by detection of movement and quantification of residual amniotic fluid volume. Hip joint development was assessed by gross anatomic analysis, micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) for cartilage assessment, and histologic observation at multiple time points. In addition, a subset of embryos from the 0.4 mL aspirated group underwent saline reinfusion and subsequent evaluation. RESULTS Increasing volumes of aspirated amniotic fluid resulted in worsening of fetal movement restrictions (e.g., 0.4 mL aspirated and control group at E10: frequency difference -7.765 [95% CI: -9.125, -6.404]; amplitude difference -0.343 [95% CI: -0.588, -0.097]). The 0.4 mL aspirated group had significantly smaller hip measurements compared to controls, with reduced acetabular length (-0.418 [95% CI: -0.575, -0.261]) and width (-0.304 [95% CI: -0.491, -0.117]) at day E14.5. Histological analysis revealed a smaller femoral head (1.084 ± 0.264 cm) and shallower acetabulum (0.380 ± 0.106 cm) in the 0.4 mL group. Micro-CT showed cartilage matrix degeneration (13.6% [95% CI: 0.6%, 26.7%], P = 0.043 on E14.5). Saline reinfusion resulted in significant improvements in the femoral head to greater trochanter (0.578 [95% CI: 0.323, 0.833], P = 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Oligohydramnios can cause DDH by restricting fetal movement and disrupting hip morphogenesis in a time-dependent manner. Timely reversal of oligohydramnios during the fetal period may prevent DDH.

Abstract
PURPOSE Despite the existence of guidelines for screening for developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH), there remains controversy regarding the need for routine ultrasound screening for DDH in patients with clubfoot due to an unclear correlation between the two conditions. The purpose of this study is to determine whether ultrasound screening for DDH in this population improved the diagnostic accuracy of DDH over standard assessment for patient risk factors and physical exam. METHODS This is a retrospective cross-sectional review of infants diagnosed with idiopathic clubfoot who underwent hip ultrasounds to assess for DDH as identified by keyword search in an institutional radiological database at a tertiary care paediatric hospital. Patient demographics, risk factors for DDH, physical exam findings, and ultrasound results were recorded. RESULTS Of the 120 patients who met the inclusion criteria between 2003 and 2018, 8 had hip dysplasia confirmed on ultrasound (6.7%). All these patients either had known risk factors for hip dysplasia or had an abnormal physical exam finding suggestive of hip instability or dislocation as performed by an orthopaedic surgeon on their initial consultation. CONCLUSION A detailed history to determine risk factors and a thorough physical exam are adequate to determine the need for hip ultrasound in infants with idiopathic clubfoot. Routine ultrasound screening of all patients with clubfoot is likely unnecessary and may pose a significant burden on the health care system.

[PMID: 38592484 PMCID: PMC11192804 DOI: 10.1007/s00431-024-05539-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/12/2023] [Revised: 03/08/2024] [Accepted: 03/21/2024] [Indexed: 04/10/2024]
Abstract
All newborns are screened for developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH), but countries have varying screening practices. The aim of this narrative mini review is to discuss the controversies of the screening and why it seems that all screening programs are likely to have same outcome. Different screening strategies are discussed alongside with other factors influencing DDH in this review. Universal ultrasound (US) has been praised as it finds more immature hips than clinical examination, but it has not been proven to reduce the rates of late-detected DDH or surgical management. Universal US screening increases initial treatment rates, while selective US and clinical screening have similar outcomes regarding late detection rates than universal US. This can be explained by the extrinsic factor affecting the development of the hip joint after birth and thus initial screening during the early weeks cannot find these cases. Conclusion: It seems that DDH screening strategies have strengths and limitations without notable differences in the most severe outcomes (late-detected cases requiring operative treatment). Thus, it is important to acknowledge that the used screening policy is a combination of values and available resources rather than a decision based on clear evidence.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The occurrence and development of developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) are related to a variety of factors, which have been reported in the literature, but the literature does not mention factors related to the severity of DDH. The purpose of this study is to analyze the related factors of the occurrence and severity of DDH in combination with the Graf ultrasonic diagnostic classification. METHODS This study was a monocentric retrospective study describing the factors associated with DDH in a large hospital of northwest China. A total of 3046 infants (6092 hips) within 6 months after birth using the Graf method were admitted to our department between 2014 and 2018. We analyzed data of DDH. After reviewing medical charts and diagnostic examination results, we assessed whether factors such as ethnicity, gender, gestational age, birth weight, diagnosis age, maternal age, mode of delivery, fetal presentation, amniotic fluid volume and birth order, had any effect on development of hip. RESULT ① Analysis showed that DDH mostly occurs in female and left hip joint, related to intrauterine fetal presentation, amniotic fluid volume, gestational age, mode of delivery, prenatal weight, and diagnosis age after birth, and the occurrence of DDH is also related to maternal age (All P<0.05). Ethnicity and first born showed have no obvious correlation with DDH incidence (p = 0.718, 0.147, respectively). ② The strongest correlation was found with amniotic fluid, followed by birth weight. ③ The severity of DDH was correlated with ethnicity, births, prenatal weight, gestational age, diagnosis age and maternal age (All P<0.05, respectively). ④ There were significant differences in treatment methods, duration and prognosis among different types of DDH. CONCLUSIONS The occurrence and development of DDH are related to a variety of factors. Ultrasound examination can provide an early assessment of the hip development status of infants and may play an important role in establishing an early clinical diagnosis treatment and monitoring and prognosis.

Abstract
PURPOSE The incidence of developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is higher in Eastern Europeans and Middle Easterners. This study aimed to establish consensus among experts in this geographical area on the management of DDH before walking age. METHODS Fourteen experienced orthopedic surgeons agreed to participate in a four-round online consensus panel by the Delphi method. The questionnaire included 31 statements concerning the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of DDH before walking age. RESULTS Consensus was established for 26 (84%) of 31 statements. Hip ultrasonography is the proper diagnostic tool under six months in DDH; universal newborn hip screening between three and six weeks is necessary; positive family history, breech presentation, female gender, and postnatal swaddling are the most important risk factors; Ortolani, Barlow tests, and limitation of abduction are the most important clinical findings; Pavlik harness is the first bracing preference; some Graf type IIa hips and all Graf type IIb and worse hips need abduction bracing treatment; the uppermost age limit for closed and open reductions is 12 months and 12-24 months, respectively; anatomic reduction is essential in closed and open reductions, postoperative MRI or CT is not always indicated; anterior approach open reduction is better than medial approach open reduction; forceful reduction and extreme positioning of the hips (> 60° hip abduction) are the two significant risk factors for osteonecrosis of the femoral head. CONCLUSION The findings of the present study may be useful for clinicians because a practical reference, based on the opinions of the multinational expert panel, but may not be applicable to all settings is provided.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Although universal screening by neonatal clinical examination with Ortolani and Barlow manoeuvres is widely adopted, its role as a sole screening tool is controversial due to its poor sensitivity and failure in identifying hip joints that eventually require surgical intervention. HYPOTHESIS This study aims to identify risk factors for a false negative Ortolani and Barlow examination in neonatal screening for DDH. The hypothesis is that risk factors for developmental dysplasia of the hips could similarly be risk factors for a false negative Ortolani and Barlow examination. MATERIAL AND METHODS In the 14-year retrospective cohort study, all newborn infants born in a single institution from 1st January 1999 to 31st December 2013 were screened clinically with the Ortolani/Barlow manoeuvre by a neonatologist. Infants with positive risk factors, despite a normal clinical examination, were then scheduled for bilateral hip ultrasound in the first three months of life and evaluated according to the Graf's method, Harcke's method of dynamic ultrasound screening and Terjesen's method of evaluation for femoral head coverage. RESULTS A total of 164 infants with normal Ortolani and Barlow examinations were scheduled for bilateral hip ultrasound due to the presence of risk factors. Amongst these, 32 (19.5%) infants were evaluated to have an abnormal hip on ultrasound. Breech position was the only statistically significant risk factor for a false negative Ortolani/Barlow examination (14/34, 41.2% vs. 18/112, 13.8%; p<0.001). DISCUSSION Sonographic hip examinations are recommended for all infants with breech presentation even if they have a normal Ortolani and Barlow examination. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE III; case-control study.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is a prevalent condition in children. Currently, the exact etiology of DDH remains uncertain. The objective of this study was to conduct a meta-analysis to investigate the risk factors associated with DDH in infants. The findings would provide a theoretical foundation for targeted early screening and diagnosis. HYPOTHESIS Several indicators, such as gender, intrauterine position, family history of DDH, gestational age, delivery mode, amniotic fluid levels, swaddling, parity, fetus number, combined musculoskeletal deformities, birth weight, and physical examination results, may serve as risk factors for DDH. MATERIALS AND METHODS Cohort studies investigating the risk factors of DDH in infants through logistic regression analysis were searched in the Wanfang, VIP citation, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), China Biology Medicine disc, Excerpta Medica Database (Embase), PubMed, and Cochrane Library databases up to May 2023. After extracting the data from eligible literature and assessing them using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS), articles were selected based on pre-established inclusion and exclusion criteria. RESULTS A total of eleven literature reports covering 979,757 infants were included in this meta-analysis. The publication bias did not significantly influence the results. The incidence rate of DDH was 47.99‰ among infants with risk factors compared to 3.21‰ in the general population. Risk factors for DDH included being female (OR=6.97, 95% CI: 5.18-9.39, p<0.001), breech delivery (OR=4.14, 95% CI: 3.09-5.54, p<0.001), positive family history (OR=4.07, 95% CI: 2.20-7.52, p<0.001), cesarean section (OR=1.11, 95% CI: 1.01-1.21, p=0.032), oligohydramnios (OR=3.93, 95% CI: 1.29-12.01, p=0.016), swaddling (OR=6.74, 95% CI: 1.25-36.31, p=0.026), firstborn status (OR=1.84, 95% CI: 1.49-2.53, p<0.001), combined musculoskeletal malformations (OR=2.27, 95% CI: 1.58-3.27, p<0.001), and physical signs of DDH (OR=8.71, 95% CI: 2.44-31.07, p=0.001). Premature delivery (OR=0.91, 95% CI: 0.88-0.95, p<0.001) was a protective factor for DDH. The relationship between multiple pregnancies (OR=0.58, 95% CI: 0.33-1.02, p=0.060) and low birth weight (OR=0.62, 95% CI: 0.14-2.76, p=0.529) in relation to DDH remained uncertain. DISCUSSION This meta-analysis shows that female, breech delivery, positive family history, cesarean section, firstborn status, oligohydramnios, swaddling and combined musculoskeletal malformations are associated with DDH. Premature delivery appeared to be a protective factor against DDH. Nevertheless, the other factors need more research to reach more conclusive results. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE III; meta-analysis.

The usefulness of universal ultrasound before hospital discharge for early diagnosing hip dysplasia in Korean neonates with breech presentation in a single center: A retrospective study. Medicine (Baltimore) 2024; 103:e38316. [PMID: 38787997 PMCID: PMC11124717 DOI: 10.1097/md.0000000000038316] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/17/2023] [Accepted: 04/30/2024] [Indexed: 05/26/2024] Open
Abstract
Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is a broad-spectrum disorder. Early diagnosis and treatment are important for improved prognosis and a lower risk of long-term complications. Selecting high-risk infants is important for the early diagnosis of DDH using ultrasonography; however, there are no standard international guidelines. This study aimed to identify the usefulness of universal ultrasound before hospital discharge in breech-born neonates and proposes selective ultrasound for high-risk patients. A retrospective chart review was conducted to identify breech-born neonates who underwent hip ultrasonography before discharge for the detection of DDH between 2019 and 2023. Patients were categorized into DDH and non-DDH groups according to the ultrasound results. We compared sex, gestational age, birth weight, first-born status, twin pregnancy, associated anomalies, presence of symptoms, physical examination results, and timing of the first hip ultrasound. The medical records of the mothers were reviewed to identify the amount of amniotic fluid and duration of breech presentation. This study included 102 patients, of whom 62 and 40 were assigned to the non-DDH and DDH groups, respectively. Congenital anomalies, positive symptoms, and positive physical examination results were significant risk factors. However, female sex, first-born status, and oligohydramnios were not statistically significant. The duration of breech presentation during pregnancy was not significant. Additionally, the risk of Pavlik harnesses was higher in patients who underwent a positive physical examination. Universal ultrasonography before discharge is not recommended for the early diagnosis of DDH in all breech-born neonates because of the high rate of overdiagnosis. We recommend that ultrasonography be performed in patients with congenital anomalies, except for foot problems, or in those with a positive physical examination conducted by trained specialists.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Developmental dislocation of the hip (DDH) is a common congenital deformity of the skeletal system in children. OBJECTIVE To investigate the efficacy of post-surgery cluster nursing in children with DDH. METHODS A total of 60 children with DDH who underwent hip joint orthopedic surgery in our hospital from September 2021 to September 2022 were enrolled as the research participants in this prospective study, and divided into the control group and the observation group according to the numerical table method, with 30 patients in each group. The control group was given routine pain care, and the observation group was given cluster pain care. The hip joint function scores, pain scores, self-rating anxiety score (SAS) were compared between the two groups and between before intervention and after intervention in the two groups. RESULTS The pain score of the children and the SAS of the primary caregivers after the intervention in the observation group were lower than those in the control group (P< 0.05), and the hip joint function score and family satisfaction degree were higher than those in the control group (P< 0.05). CONCLUSION Family-based cluster pain care can reduce pain in children with DDH after surgery, promote hip joint functional recovery, reduce the negative emotions of caregivers, and improve family satisfaction, and has clinical popularization value.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This article evaluates the risk (defined here as incidence per 1,000 infants) of developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) in premature infants undergoing hip ultrasound (HUS) for breech presentation only compared with other indications. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective study of infants born between January 1, 2009 and December 31, 2018 at <37 weeks' gestation with a HUS obtained in the first year of life, at Nationwide Children's Hospital, the only available facility for pediatric radiology and orthopaedic services in central Ohio. We calculated risk differences and odds ratios of DDH by the indication of HUS. RESULTS From 2,397 infants reviewed, 89% underwent HUS for breech presentation only. The local incidence of DDH for infants undergoing HUS for breech-only indication was 15 per 1,000 compared with 155 per 1,000 for infants undergoing HUS for other indications. The odds ratio of DDH diagnosis was 12.1 (95% confidence interval: 7.5, 19.6) for infants undergoing HUS for an indication other than breech presentation only relative to infants undergoing HUS for the indication of breech presentation only. CONCLUSION The risk of DDH diagnosis in premature infants undergoing HUS for breech presentation is much lower than those undergoing HUS for clinical concerns and other risk factors. Screening these infants with physical examination may be sufficient. KEY POINTS · Breech presentation is the most common indication for hip ultrasound in premature infants.. · The risk of DDH is lower in premature infants with breech presentation compared with premature infants with other clinical concerns.. · The risk of DDH is higher in infants born at 33 to 36 weeks of gestation compared with those born at an earlier gestation..

Abstract
This study is an observation of the early screening and treatment effect of infant developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) in an area in China. From January 2016 to December 2017, we selected infants and toddlers with high-risk factors for DDH, such as asymmetric gluteal folds, unequal length of lower limbs, and limited hip joint abduction, who visited the Department of Child Health Care and the Outpatient Clinic of Pediatric Orthopedics at the Affiliated Hospital of Zunyi Medical University. In total, 1485 cases were divided into age groups, examined using Graf ultrasound and X-ray, and the results were analyzed. Meanwhile, early interventions were actively adopted for cases with abnormalities during the screening. The detection rates of DDH were 24.0%, 2.8%, 9.3%, and 12.2% among those with 0 to 6 months, 7 to 12 months, 13 to 18 months, and 19 to 24 months of age, respectively. Early and individualized corrective conservative treatment was considered for children with abnormalities, and the cure rates were 87.0%, 65.7%, 41.0%, and 16.7% among those with 0 to 6 months, 7 to 12 months, 13 to 18 months, and 19 to 24 months of age, respectively. There was a statistically significant difference in the detection and cure rates of DDH in infants and toddlers of different ages (P < .01).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) leads to pain, joint instability, and early degenerative joint disease. Incidence, prevalence, and management strategies of DDH have been well-documented in several countries, but not in Saudi Arabia. OBJECTIVE We synthesized the current evidence regarding incidence, prevalence, risk factors, and clinical treatment for children with DDH in Saudi Arabia. METHODS We searched 3 databases to locate studies. Studies that included children with DDH in Saudi Arabia; reported either incidence rate, prevalence, risk factors, and/or clinical practice; and were available in English or Arabic were included. We excluded reviews, case studies, or animal studies. Two independent authors reviewed potential studies and assessed study's quality. RESULTS Our search yielded 67 potential studies, of which 16 studies were included (total DDH sample = 3,127; age range = 2.5 to 86.4 months). Three studies reported incidence rates ranging from 3.1 to 4.9 per 1000 births, and 3 studies reported prevalence ranging from 6 to 78%. Nine studies reported that female sex, breech position, family history, and age less than 3 years were risk factors associated with DDH. Four studies reported that brace applications and closed reduction were conservative treatments, and 9 studies reported that open hip reduction, adductor tenotomy, and/or pelvic osteotomy were surgical approaches to treat DDH. CONCLUSIONS In Saudi Arabia, the Incidence and prevalence rates of DDH are 3.1 to 4.9 per 1,000 births, and 6-78%, respectively (differ from what has been reported in other countries), but the risk factors of DDH in Saudi Arabia appear to be similar in comparison to other countries (female, breech presentation, family history of DDH).

Abstract
PURPOSE Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is one of the most common musculoskeletal disorder in infants. The most significant risk factors include female gender, breech presentation, left hip and family history. In this study, we utilized the Graf method at different time intervals to evaluate both breech-delivered and cephalic-born newborns. The objectives were to compare the incidence of DDH in cephalic and breech-delivered neonates and investigate whether the hip joints of neonates delivered in the breech position exhibit a distinct maturation pattern. MATERIAL AND METHODS We studied prospectively 618 hip joints (309 newborns). Each hip joint was examined with the Graf method in four time periods as follows: Phase #1 (0-1 weeks), Phase #2 (1-4 weeks), Phase #3 (4-7 weeks), and Phase #4 (7-10 weeks). The α and β angles for each hip joint were measured, and the hips were classified according to Graf classification. With our statistical analysis within the different phases, we were able to investigate potential variations in the maturation patterns between newborns delivered in the breech and cephalic delivery positions. RESULTS A significant difference (at the 5% level) was observed in Phase 1 between breech and cephalic-delivered neonates (35.6-8.6%). This difference tended to decrease in next phases (13.6-1% in Phase 2, 2.5-0% in Phase 3 and 1.7-0% in Phase 4). A significant difference (at the 5% level) for cephalic-delivered neonates was also observed between Phase 1 and Phase 4 (8.5-0%), but the percentages were low. Additionally, the breech-delivered had extreme difference in incidence of DDH from Phase 1 to Phase 4 (35.6-11.9%, 2.5%, and 1.7%, respectively). CONCLUSION It appears that there is an actual difference in the incidence of DDH between breech-delivered and cephalic-delivered neonates, although the difference may be less significant than previously considered. The majority of the breech-delivered neonates that were initially considered as pathological (Phase 1) are, in fact, healthy. This is ascertained in subsequent ultrasound examinations conducted in later phases (Phases 2-4), when the incidence of pathological cases decreases. This could be attributed to potential different maturation pattern between these groups.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Developmental dysplasia of hip (DDH) is a hip joint disorder leading to subsequent osteoarthritis. Previous studies suggested collagen XI alpha 1 (COL11A1) as a potential gene in hip dysplasia and chondrocyte degeneration. However, no genetic association has reported COL11A1-related cellular therapy as treatment of DDH and joint degeneration. METHODS AND RESULTS We report identified genetic association between COL11A1 locus and DDH with genome-wide association study (GWAS). Further exome sequencing for familial DDH patients was conducted in different populations to identify potential pathogenic Col11A1 variants for familiar DDH. Further studies demonstrated involvement of COL11A1 expression was down-regulated in femoral head cartilage of DDH patients and Col11a1-KO mice with induced DDH. Col11a1-KO mice demonstrated aggravated joint degeneration and severe OA phenotype. To explore the underlying mechanism of Col11a1 in cartilage and DDH development, we generated scRNA-seq profiles for DDH and Col11a1-KO cartilage, demonstrating disrupted chondrocyte homeostasis and cellular senescence caused by Col11a1-HIF1α-mediated glycolysis-OXPHOS shift in chondrocytes. Genetically and biologically inspired, we further fabricated an intra-articular injection therapy to preventing cartilage degeneration by generating a Col11a1-over-expressed (OE) SMSC mini-organoids. Col11a1-OE organoids demonstrated superior chondrogenesis and ameliorated cartilage degeneration in DDH mice via regulating cellular senescence by up-regulated Col11a1/HIF1α-mediated glycolysis in chondrocytes. CONCLUSION We reported association between COL11A1 loci and DDH with GWAS and exome sequencing. Further studies demonstrated involvement of COL11A1 in DDH patients and Col11a1-KO mice. ScRNA-seq for DDH and Col11a1-KO cartilage demonstrated disrupted chondrocyte homeostasis and cellular senescence caused by Col11a1-HIF1α-mediated glycolysis-OXPHOS shift in chondrocytes. Genetically and biologically inspired, an intra-articular injection therapy was fabricated to prevent cartilage degeneration with Col11a1-OE SMSC organoids. Col11a1-OE organoids ameliorated cartilage degeneration in DDH mice via regulating cellular senescence by up-regulated Col11a1/HIF1α-mediated glycolysis in chondrocytes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is a prevalent orthopaedic disorder in children, and screening methods vary across regions due to local health policies. The purpose of this review is to systematise the different ultrasound screening strategies for detecting DDH in newborns in Europe. METHODS Eligible studies from the PubMed, Embase, and Scopus databases, published between 1 January 2018 and 18 March 2023, were included. The inclusion criteria specified a European origin, a focus on newborn human patients, and information on ultrasound for DDH detection. RESULTS In total, 45 studies were included, covering 18 countries. Among them, six nations (Austria, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Poland, Slovenia, the Czech Republic, and Germany) perform universal ultrasound screening. The timing of the first ultrasound varies, with Austria and the Czech Republic within the 1st week, Bosnia and Herzegovina on the day of birth, Poland between 1 and 12 weeks, and Germany before the 6th week. The Graf method is the most popular ultrasound technique used. CONCLUSIONS There is no consensus on the optimal DDH detection approach in Europe. Varied screening methods stem from epidemiological, cultural, and economic differences among countries.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE There is inconsistency in the literature regarding the relationship between increased birthweight and risk of developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). We aimed to investigate the correlation between birthweight and pubo-femoral distance (PFD), as well as Graf's α angle in newborns undergoing hip ultrasound examination at 6 weeks of age. PATIENTS AND METHODS Basic newborn characteristics and ultrasound measurements were retrospectively collected during a 1-year study period. We excluded multiple births, newborns born at less than 37 gestational weeks, and incomplete information. Simple and multiple linear regression analyses were performed to evaluate the correlation of birthweight and PFD, and, second, birthweight and α angles including a stratified regression analysis investigating the potential effect modification of sex. RESULTS 707 newborns (1,414 hips) were included. Mean birthweight was significantly higher for male newborns (P < 0.001). Increased birthweight was positively correlated to PFD values (crude coefficient 0.21, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.10-0.32) and the correlation was still present after adjusting for sex, family history, and breech presentation (adjusted coefficient 0.18, CI 0.07-0.29). The stratified α angle model for the males was significant for both the crude coefficient (-0.73, CI -1.28 to -0.19) and the adjusted (-0.59, CI -1.15 to -0.03), and also for the females (crude coefficient -1.14, CI -1.98 to -0.31 and adjusted coefficient -1.15, CI -1.99 to -0.31). CONCLUSION We found that increased birthweight positively correlated to PFD, and negatively correlated to α angle, but this was not of clinical significance.

Lankinen V, Vuorinen RL, Helminen M, Bakti K, Välipakka J, Laivuori H, Hyvärinen A. Costs of abduction treatment in developmental dysplasia of the hip. Analysis of 900 patients. Ann Med 2023; 55:2290694. [PMID: 38065688 PMCID: PMC10836239 DOI: 10.1080/07853890.2023.2290694] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/10/2023] [Accepted: 11/27/2023] [Indexed: 12/18/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is a disorder of hip development that leads to dysplasia, subluxation, or total hip dislocation. Early detection of DDH is important, and early initiation of abduction treatment is key to successful correction of the hip joint. However, mild forms of DDH, including hip instability without complete dislocation, have good spontaneous healing potential, and a watchful waiting strategy in mild DDH has been found to be safe. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the cost differences between different treatment strategies for DDH. MATERIAL AND METHODS Data were collected retrospectively from the medical records of all children diagnosed with diagnosis and treatment of DDH in Tampere University hospital between 1998 and 2018. In total, 948 patients were included in the study. Patients who underwent casting or operative treatment (n = 48) were excluded from the analysis. All Ortolani positive children were subjected to early abduction treatment. Children with Ortolani negative DDH were subjected to either watchful waiting or early abduction treatment, based on the clinicians' decision. The regression model estimates for the number of clinical visits with and without ultrasound examination were assessed together with cost reports from Tampere University Hospital for the calculation of savings per patient in spontaneous recovery. RESULTS Alpha angles at one month of age (p < 0.001) and treatment method (p < 0.001) affected the number of clinical visits and ultrasound examinations during the treatment follow-up. A low alpha angle predicted closer follow-up, and children with spontaneous recovery had lower numbers of clinical visits and ultrasound examinations than children in abduction treatment. Spontaneous recovery was found to result in approximately 375€/patient savings compared to successful abduction treatment. CONCLUSION With correct patient selection, a watchful waiting strategy is cost-effective in treating mild developmental dysplasia of the hip, considering the high percentage of spontaneous recovery.

Abstract
PURPOSE Across orthopedic subspecialties, significant racial disparities have been identified with regard to postoperative outcomes. Despite these findings among adult patients, the literature assessing these disparities within pediatric orthopedics is limited. The purpose of this study was to determine the independent predictors for unplanned readmission following surgical treatment of developmental dysplasia of the hip. METHODS Pediatric patients undergoing hip dysplasia surgery from 2012 to 2019 were identified in the National Surgical Quality Improvement Program-Pediatric database. Two patient groups were defined: patients who had unplanned hospital readmission within 30 days of surgery and patients who were not readmitted. Clinical characteristics assessed included gender, race, and American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) class. Risk factors for complications were assessed using bivariate and multivariate analysis. RESULTS Of 6561 pediatric patients undergoing surgical treatment for hip dysplasia, 540 (8.2%) had unplanned readmission. On bivariate analysis, non-white race (Black, Asian, Hispanic, American Indian, and Native Hawaiian), an ASA class of III, IV, or V, pulmonary, renal, neurological, and gastrointestinal comorbidities, as well as immune disease, steroid use, and nutritional support were significantly associated with unplanned readmission (p < 0.05 for all). After controlling for confounding variables on multivariate analysis, non-white race (OR 1.46; p = 0.042) and ASA class of III-V (OR 2.21; p = 0.002) were found to be independent predictors for readmission. CONCLUSION Clinicians should be advised of the increased readmission rates observed in non-white patients and those of higher ASA scores. Further work is needed to combat existing disparities within pediatric orthopedics.

Abstract
PURPOSE Pavlik harness treatment is the most common treatment in newborns diagnosed with developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). The success rates and predictors for failure have been debated over the last decade. In this study, we explored our treatment failure rate and potential prognostic factors that could predict the failure of Pavlik harness (PH) treatment in patients with DDH. METHODS Two hundred and sixty-five patients were treated with PH based on the Graf hip types of classification. Age, gender, first born status, family history, foot deformity, plagiocephaly, breech presentation, hip abduction, hip stability, Graf hip type, Galeazzi sign, bilateralism, and femoral nerve palsy were tested as predictors for failure in multivariate logistic regression mode. Success and failure were determined by the normalization of the hip based on the Graf hip classification. RESULTS The failure rate of patients treated with Pavlik harness was 16.6% which is within the reported range of failure rate. The mean age of patients who were successfully treated was 6.73 weeks in comparison to 8.84 weeks for those who failed. Age, plagiocephaly, hip instability, Graf classification, and the development of femoral nerve palsy were found to be predictors for failure of PH treatment upon univariate analysis only. However, only the presence of Galeazzi sign, hip instability, high grades of Graf hip classification, and the development of femoral nerve palsy proved to be independent predictors for failed PH treatment upon multivariate logistic regression analysis. CONCLUSIONS Pavlik harness treatment is a successful treatment with an average success of 83.4%. Several independent predictors for failure of PH treatment have been identified. These include a positive Galeazzi sign, a frankly dislocated hip, Graf types III and IV, and the development of femoral nerve palsy.

Abstract
Background Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is one of the most common hip pathologies in pediatric age group and late diagnosis remains a major concern in Saudi Arabia. Objective The aim of this study is to examine the ability of Saudi Arabian pediatricians and family physicians to conduct clinical screening for (DDH) by estimating their clinical knowledge and skills and analyzing the gaps therein to determine whether there is potential to launch a national screening protocol for DDH in Saudi Arabia. Methods This is a multicenter cross-sectional study from three major regions in Saudi Arabia (Central, Eastern and Western provinces). The assessed aspects are risk factors, age of screening, incidence in Saudi Arabia, physical signs and diagnostic markers, and treatment, along with their 'clinical knowledge and skills' score. Results Half of the participants were pediatricians, while the rest were family physicians. More than a third of the participants were considered to have adequate knowledge, ie, above the mean score. Dimensions with the most significant knowledge gaps included the incidence of DDH in Saudi Arabia, adverse effects of swaddling, and the management of a high-risk infants presenting with a negative physical examination. Additionally, there were relatively low rates of awareness regarding positive risk factors as well as a generally poor ability to identify physical signs. Clinical knowledge and skill levels were significantly lower among family physicians. Conclusion Pediatricians and family physicians in Saudi Arabia still need further training to improve their clinical skills for DDH screening. The proper administration of training programs could eventually enable the gradual implementation of a national systematic screening program.

Abstract
Aims Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) can be managed effectively with non-surgical interventions when diagnosed early. However, the likelihood of surgical intervention increases with a late presentation. Therefore, an effective screening programme is essential to prevent late diagnosis and reduce surgical morbidity in the population. Methods We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of the epidemiological literature from the last 25 years in the UK. Articles were selected from databases searches using MEDLINE, EMBASE, OVID, and Cochrane; 13 papers met the inclusion criteria. Results The incidence of DDH within the UK over the last 25 years is 7.3/1,000 live births with females making up 86% of the DDH population (odds ratio 6.14 (95% confidence interval 3.3 to 11.5); p < 0.001). The incidence of DDH significantly increased following the change in the Newborn and Infant Physical Examination (NIPE) guidance from 6.5/1,000 to 9.4/1,000 live births (p < 0.001). The rate of late presentation also increased following the changes to the NIPE guidance, rising from 0.7/1,000 to 1.2/1,000 live births (p < 0.001). However, despite this increase in late-presenting cases, there was no change in the rates of surgical intervention (0.8/1,000 live births; p = 0.940). Conclusion The literature demonstrates that the implementation of a selective screening programme increased the incidence of DDH diagnosis in the UK while subsequently increasing the rates of late presentation and failing in its goal of reducing the rates of surgical intervention for DDH.

Abstract
Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is a complex disorder that refers to different hip problems, ranging from neonatal instability to acetabular or femoral dysplasia, hip subluxation, and hip dislocation. It may result in structural modifications, which may lead to early coxarthrosis. Despite identifying the risk factors, the exact aetiology and pathophysiology are still unclear. Neonatal screening, along with physical examination and ultrasound, is critical for the early diagnosis of DDH to prevent the occurrence of early coxarthrosis. This review summarizes the currently practised strategies for the detection and treatment of DDH, focusing particularly on current practices for managing residual acetabular dysplasia (AD). AD may persist even after a successful hip reduction. Pelvic osteotomy is required in cases of persistent AD. It could also be undertaken simultaneously with an open hip reduction. Evaluation of the residual dysplasia (RD) of the hip and its management is still a highly active area of discussion. Recent research has opened the door to discussion on this issue and suggested treatment options for AD. But there is still room for more research to assist in managing AD.

Abstract
Introduction Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is the most common congenital disability in newborns. The condition can range from a slight laxity in the hip joint to secondary femoral head injury, early osteoarthritis (OA), and mobility issues. There are several risk factors for DDH, including positive family history, female sex, breech presentation, and the presence of clubfoot. Early detection and treatment are crucial to avoid long-term hip dysplasia and arthritis, which can cause difficulty in walking and discomfort. Breech presentation, in particular, is a significant risk factor for DDH, with spontaneous vaginal birth increasing the risk of hip pathology and instability compared to elective Caesarean section. However, whether breech presentation continues to be a risk factor for DDH in preterm children is unknown. Objective and methods This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of breech presentation and other gestational/delivery characteristics among newborns diagnosed with DDH. This retrospective study was conducted at Abha Maternity and Children Hospital, Abha, Saudi Arabia, over a period of six months. Data were collected from medical records of DDH cases diagnosed between 2016 and 2023. Data analysis was performed using Microsoft Excel (Microsoft Corporation, Redmond, Washington, United States) and IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows, Version 22 (Released 2013; IBM Corp., Armonk, New York, United States). Descriptive statistics and statistical tests were used to analyze the data. Results Most of the diagnosed children were female (86.7%), and bilateral hip dislocation (40%) was the most common presentation. X-ray was the most common diagnostic tool (48.3%), and operative management was the most common management strategy (73.3%). A positive family history of DDH was reported in more than one-third of cases. The study also analyzed the association between complications during pregnancy and various factors such as mode of delivery, presentation at delivery, gestational age at delivery, and associated maternal diseases. The difference in complication rates between women who delivered via C-section and those who delivered vaginally was insignificant (p = 0.14). Similarly, the difference in complication rates between women with breech and cephalic presentation was not statistically significant (p = 0.094). The difference in complication rates between women who delivered preterm, at term, or post-term was also not statistically significant (p = 0.578). Furthermore, the association between complications during pregnancy and pregnancy-associated maternal diseases was not statistically significant (p = 1.00). Conclusion DDH is a significant health issue in newborns, leading to long-term mobility problems and discomfort. Positive family history of DDH is a significant risk factor. Breech presentation was not significantly associated with DDH in preterm children, and no significant associations were found between complications during pregnancy and various factors. Early detection and treatment of DDH are crucial for preventing long-term complications. Family history should be considered an important risk factor, emphasizing the need for screening programs in families with a history of DDH.

Abstract
Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is the most common orthopedic disorder in newborns. Early recognition and diagnosis are critical to prevent long-term complications. While several risk factors have been established, the association between prematurity and DDH remains unclear. Our analysis sought to analyze the literature exploring the relationship between prematurity and DDH. Articles evaluating the relationship between prematurity and DDH published between 1 January 2000 and 1 February 2022 were queried, with 11 studies included for analysis. Overall, a total of 8720 patients were included. The gestational age ranged from 23 to 36 weeks for preterm and ≥37 weeks for term births. Seven studies agreed that gestational age did not have a significant impact on DDH. Pooled analysis of available data demonstrated no significant difference in DDH among preterm and term infants (OR, 1.11; 95% CI, 0.82-1.51; P = 0.49). Sub-group analysis of two studies reporting data on very preterm (≤32 weeks) and term infants revealed no significant difference in the occurrence of DDH (OR, 4.58; 95% CI, 0.09-244.78; P = 0.45). Four studies found early gestational age is associated with a significantly higher incidence of mature hips compared to late preterm or term babies. Similarly, pooled analysis demonstrated significantly lower Graf classification among preterm infants (OR, 0.13; 95% CI, 0.03-0.61; P = 0.009). Based on the current literature, our analysis found that prematurity is not strongly associated with DDH. Furthermore, early gestational age was associated with a significantly higher incidence of mature hips measured by Graf classification.

Abstract
The Academy of Orthopaedic Physical Therapy (AOPT), formerly the Orthopaedic Section of the American Physical Therapy Association (APTA), has an ongoing effort to create evidence-based practice guidelines for orthopaedic physical therapy management of patients with musculoskeletal impairments described in the World Health Organization's International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health (ICF). This is an update to the 2014 Clinical Practice Guideline (CPG) for Hip Pain and Movement Dysfunction Associated with Nonarthritic Hip Joint Pain. The goals of the revision were to provide a concise summary of the contemporary evidence since publication of the original guideline and to develop new recommendations or revise previously published recommendations to support evidence-based practice. This current CPG covers pathoanatomical features, clinical course, prognosis, diagnosis, examination, and physical therapy interventions in the management of nonarthritic hip joint pain.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate risk factors of misdiagnosis at the first visit of children with developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) who did not participate in hip ultrasound screening. METHODS A retrospective review was conducted on children with DDH admitted to a tertiary hospital in northwestern China between January 2010 and June 2021. We divided the patients into the diagnosis and misdiagnosis groups according to whether they were diagnosed at the first visit. The basic information, treatment process and medical information of the children were investigated. We made a line chart of the annual misdiagnosis rate to observe the trend in the annual misdiagnosis rate. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to identify significant risk factors for missed diagnosis. RESULTS A total of 351 patients met the inclusion criteria, including 256 (72.9%) patients in the diagnosis group and 95 (27.1%) patients in the misdiagnosis group. The line chart of the annual rate of misdiagnoses among children with DDH from 2010 to 2020 showed no significant change trend. Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that the paediatrics department (v the paediatric orthopaedics department: OR 0.21, p<0.001), the general orthopaedics department (v the paediatric orthopaedics department: OR 0.39, p=0.006) and the senior physician (v the junior physician: OR 2.47, p=0.006) on the misdiagnosis at the first visit of children were statistically significant. CONCLUSION Children with DDH without hip ultrasound screening are prone to be misdiagnosed at their first visit. The annual misdiagnosis rate has not been significantly reduced in recent years. The department and title of the physician are independent risk factors for misdiagnosis.

Preterm birth does not increase the risk of developmental dysplasia of the Hip: a systematic review and meta-analysis. BMC Pediatr 2023; 23:268. [PMID: 37246230 DOI: 10.1186/s12887-023-04083-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/07/2023] [Accepted: 05/18/2023] [Indexed: 05/30/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this systematic review was to appraise the literature on the association between preterm birth and developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). METHODS Medline, Embase, Scopus, and Web of Science databases were queried for all studies pertaining to DDH and preterm birth. Data were imported and analyzed in Revman5 and Comprehensive Meta-Analysis (CMA) for pooled prevalence estimation. RESULTS Fifteen studies were included in the final analysis. There were 759 newborns diagnosed with DDH in these studies. DDH was diagnosed in 2.0% [95%CI:1.1-3.5%] of the premature newborns. Pooled incidence rate of DDH was not statistically different between those groups (2.5%[0.9%-6.8%] vs. 0.7%[0.2%-2.5%] vs. 1.7%[0.6%-5.3%];Q = 2.363,p = 0.307). CONCLUSIONS In this systematic review and meta-analysis, we did not find preterm birth to be a significant risk factor for DDH. Data suggests that female sex and breech presentation are associated with DDH in preterm infants, but the data is scarce in the literature.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to investigate the detection rate of developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) by ultrasound. To obtain the distribution characteristics of the different types (I-IV) and the role of ultrasound in the evaluation of infants with DDH (type IIc and above) receiving conservative treatment. METHODS A retrospective analysis was performed. The chi-square test was used for comparisons between count-data groups. Two-sided tests were used for all analyses. The results of ultrasound follow-up after conservative treatment are described. RESULTS Among the 48 666 infants examined, the detection rates were as follows: type I, 95.42%; IIa, 3.18%; IIb, 0.91%; IIc, 0.22%; D, 0.01%; III, 0.14%; and IV, 0.12%. There were 4456 hips with IIa and above, more left (54.65%) than right (45.35%) hips, and more females (82.60%) than males (17.40%). The detection rate of type IIa and above was 4.58%, and that of type IIb and above was 1.40%. After the treatment, the α value increased, and β value decreased. The cure rate of the less-than-42-days group was higher than that of the other groups. CONCLUSION The ultrasound detection rate of DDH is high. DDH was more likely to occur on the left side and in females. It is recommended that the infants should be treated within 42 days.

BMC Musculoskelet Disord 2023; 24:318. [PMID: 37087422 PMCID: PMC10122396 DOI: 10.1186/s12891-023-06427-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/30/2022] [Accepted: 04/12/2023] [Indexed: 04/24/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Intraoperative cell salvage (ICS) is an important component of blood management in patients undergoing orthopedic surgery. However, the role of ICS is less well defined in total hip arthroplasty (THA) with subtrochanteric shortening osteotomy (SSO) which is a common surgical technique to manage high hip dislocation. This study aimed to determine the effect of ICS during THA with SSO and to identify factors associated with the ability to salvage sufficient collection for reinfusion in patients with high hip dislocation. METHODS We identified 178 patients who underwent THA with SSO for high hip dislocation between November 2010 and April 2021. The consecutive cohort was analyzed by logistic regression to determine the effect of ICS on postoperative allogeneic blood transfusion (ABT) and to explore the associations between patient demographics, clinical and radiographic characteristics, preoperative laboratory examination, and surgical variables with the ability to generate adequate blood salvage to reinfuse. RESULTS In the consecutive cohort of 178 patients, cell salvage was reinfused in 107 patients (60.1%) and postoperative allogeneic red blood cell (RBC) transfusion within 3 days of implantation was administrated in 40 patients (22.5%). In multivariate analysis, the reinfusion of ICS (OR (95%CI) 0.17 (0.07-0.47)), center of rotation (COR) height ≥ 60 mm (OR (95%CI) 3.30 (1.21-9.01)), the length of SSO ≥ 30 mm (OR (95%CI) 2.75 (1.05-7.22)) and the use of drainage (OR (95%CI) 2.28 (1.04-5.03)) were identified as independent factors of postoperative allogeneic RBC transfusion. In addition, the following variables were identified as independent factors associated with the ability to generate sufficient blood salvage volume for reinfusion: COR height ≥ 60 mm (OR (95%CI) 3.47 (1.58-7.61)), limb-length discrepancy (LLD) ≥ 25 mm (OR (95%CI) 2.55 (1.15-5.65)) and length of SSO ≥ 30 mm (OR (95%CI) 2.75 (1.33-5.69)). CONCLUSIONS ICS was efficacious in reducing the exposure rate of postoperative RBC transfusion for high hip dislocation during THA with SSO. In addition, patients with greater COR height, larger LLD, and longer length of SSO were predisposed to generate sufficient collection for reinfusion in THA with SSO.

Abstract
Aims Early detection of developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is associated with improved outcomes of conservative treatment. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate a novel screening programme that included both the primary risk factors of breech presentation and family history, and the secondary risk factors of oligohydramnios and foot deformities. Methods A five-year prospective registry study investigating every live birth in the study’s catchment area (n = 27,731), all of whom underwent screening for risk factors and examination at the newborn and six- to eight-week neonatal examination and review. DDH was diagnosed using ultrasonography and the Graf classification system, defined as grade IIb or above or rapidly regressing IIa disease (≥4o at four weeks follow-up). Multivariate odds ratios were calculated to establish significant association, and risk differences were calculated to provide quantifiable risk increase with DDH, positive predictive value was used as a measure of predictive efficacy. The cost-effectiveness of using these risk factors to predict DDH was evaluated using NHS tariffs (January 2021). Results The prevalence of DDH that required treatment within our population was 5/1,000 live births. The rate of missed presentation of DDH was 0.43/1000 live births. Breech position, family history, oligohydramnios, and foot deformities demonstrated significant association with DDH (p < 0.0001). The presence of breech presentation increased the risk of DDH by 1.69% (95% confidence interval (CI) 0.93% to 2.45%), family history by 3.57% (95% CI 2.06% to 5.09%), foot deformities by 8.95% (95% CI 4.81% to 13.1%), and oligohydramnios nby 11.6% (95 % CI 3.0% to 19.0%). Primary risk factors family history and breech presentation demonstrated an estimated cost-per-case detection of £6,276 and £11,409, respectively. Oligohydramnios and foot deformities demonstrated a cost-per-case detected less than the cost of primary risk factors of £2,260 and £2,670, respectively. Conclusion The inclusion of secondary risk factors within a national screening programme was clinically successful as they were more cost and resource-efficient predictors of DDH than primary risk factors, suggesting they should be considered in the national guidance.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hip dysplasia is a complex static-dynamic pathology leading to chronic joint instability and osteoarthritis. Because our understanding of the underlying pathomorphologies of hip dysplasia, both on the macro and micro levels, has evolved, an updated definition is needed. QUESTION What is the definition of hip dysplasia in 2023? METHODS By summarizing and reviewing relevant literature, we provide an up-to-date definition of hip dysplasia with a guide to appropriately making the diagnosis. RESULTS In addition to the pathognomonic parameters, supportive and descriptive indicators, as well as secondary changes are used to fully characterize instability inherent in hip dysplasia. The primary diagnostic tool is always the plain anteroposterior pelvis radiograph, which can be supplemented by additional investigations (MRI of the hip with intraarticular contrast agent; CT) if necessary. CONCLUSION The complexity, subtlety, and diversity of the pathomorphology of residual hip dysplasia requires careful, multilevel diagnosis and treatment planning in specialized centers.

Abstract
PURPOSE Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) varies from mild instability of the hip to subluxation or total dislocation of the joint. Well-known risk factors of DDH include pre-natal breech position, female sex, positive family history, hip side, primiparity and the mode of delivery. Aim of the present study was to further evaluate known risk-factors of DDH, find associations with more severe dysplasia (characterized with Ortolani positivity) and find risk factors of failure of the Pavlik harness treatment. MATERIAL AND METHODS All children with the diagnosis of DDH treated in Tampere University hospital in the years 1998-2018 were retrospectively identified for the study and the data was collected from the medical records. Teratological dislocations (n = 3) were excluded from the analysis. Total of 945 patients were included. RESULTS Breech presentation was strongly associated with Ortolani positivity (p < 0.001). Breech presentation was not associated with ending up for spica casting and/or operative treatment (p = 0.291) despite the association with Ortolani positivity. Ortolani positivity (p = 0.002), positive family history (p = 0.013) and girl sex (p = 0.029) were associated with ending up for spica casting and/or operative treatment. CONCLUSION Breech presentation seems to increase the risk of Ortolani positive DDH. However, these infants are likely to recover with initially started Pavlik harness treatment, as it was not associated with elevated risk for undergoing more robust treatments. Positive family history and girl sex are associated with the most severe cases of developmental dysplasia of the hip, and it may predispose to the failure of the Pavlik harness treatment.

Abstract
This case-control study investigated the association between timing and duration of breech presentation in pregnancy and developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). Children with DDH aged 3 years or younger (n = 191) were compared with healthy controls (n = 209). Data on outcome, exposure and, covariates were collected using a parents' self-report online questionnaire. Term children with breech presentation at one or more check-ups after 30.0 weeks gestation had a twofold higher risk of developing DDH compared to children who had never presented in breech (OR 2.01; 95% CI [1.28, 3.15]). The strength of the association increased with duration of breech presentation (5-8 weeks: OR 2.65; 95% CI [1.36, 5.18]; 9-12 weeks: OR 3.63; 95% CI [1.82, 7.24]). Children who had presented in breech at least once in gestational period 37.0-birth had a 3.24 (95% CI [1.86, 5.65]) times higher risk of DDH, whereas the risk for children with breech presentation in gestational period 30.0-36.6 only was not increased. Also after adjusting for confounders, children who had presented in breech after gestational week 37.0-birth had a more than threefold higher risk of DDH (OR 3.33; 95% CI [1.81, 6.13]) compared to children who were never in breech or in gestational period 30.0-36.6 only.

Abstract
AIMS We investigated the prevalence of late developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH), abduction bracing treatment, and surgical procedures performed following the implementation of universal ultrasound screening versus selective ultrasound screening programmes. METHODS A systematic search of PubMed, Embase, The Cochrane Library, OrthoSearch, and Web of Science from the date of inception of each database until 27 March 2022 was performed. The primary outcome of interest was the prevalence of late detection of DDH, diagnosed after three months. Secondary outcomes of interest were the prevalence of abduction bracing treatment and surgical procedures performed in childhood for dysplasia. Only studies describing the primary outcome of interest were included. RESULTS A total of 31 studies were identified, of which 13 described universal screening and 20 described selective screening. Two studies described both. The prevalence of late DDH was 0.10 per 1,000 live births (95% confidence interval (CI) 0.00 to 0.39) in the universal screening group and 0.45 per 1,000 live births (95% CI 0.31 to 0.61) in the selective screening group. Abduction bracing treatment was performed on 55.54 per 1,000 live births (95% CI 24.46 to 98.15) in the universal screening group versus 0.48 per 1,000 live births (95% CI 0.07 to 1.13) in the selective screening group. Both the universal and selective screening groups had a similar prevalence of surgical procedures in childhood for dysplasia being performed (0.48 (95% CI 0.32 to 0.63) vs 0.49 (95% CI 0.31 to 0.71) per 1,000 live births, respectively). CONCLUSION Universal screening showed a trend towards lower prevalence of late DDH compared to selective screening. However, it was also associated with a significant increase in the prevalence of abduction bracing without a significant reduction in the prevalence of surgical procedures in childhood for dysplasia being performed. High-quality studies comparing both treatment methods are required, in addition to studies into the natural history of missed DDH.Cite this article: Bone Joint J 2023;105-B(2):198-208.

Abstract
Any non-cephalic presentation in a fetus is regarded as malpresentation. The most common malpresentation, breech, contributes to 3%-5% of term pregnancies and is a leading indication for cesarean delivery. Identification of risk factors and a proper physical examination are beneficial; however, ultrasound is the gold standard for the diagnosis of malpresentations. External cephalic version (ECV) refers to a procedure aimed to convert a non-cephalic presenting fetus to cephalic presentation. This procedure is performed manually through the mother’s abdomen by a trained health care provider, to reduce the likelihood of a cesarean section. Studies have reported a version success rate of above 50% by ECV. The main objective of this review is to present a broad perspective on fetal malpresentation, ECV, and delivery of a breech fetus. The focus is to elaborate all clinical scenarios of breech and to provide an evidence-based clinical approach for them. After discussing breech prevalence, risk factors, diagnosis, and management, an updated review of ECV is presented. Moreover, ECV indications/contraindications, alternatives, clinical techniques on how to perform ECV and breech vaginal delivery, and obstetrical considerations for the delivery of malpresentations are thoroughly discussed.

Abstract
Background Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is a known orthopedic pathology of newborns that, if not diagnosed and treated, can lead to debilitating long-term consequences. Ultrasound has proven to be an effective method for the early diagnosis of this condition. Recently, reports of late DDH in populations at risk (breech presentation) and after negative ultrasound examination have emerged in the literature. Aim The objective of the study was to assess the possible appearance of late DDH in Italian children with risk factors but negative ultrasound screening. Materials and methods We selected patients with risk factors for DDH and a negative hip ultrasound from the medical records of children referred to the Hip Ultrasound Clinic (Rome, Italy) from January 2018 to November 2021. To identify possible cases of late DDH, from February 2022 to July 2022, all patients who met the inclusion criteria were submitted to orthopedic follow-up clinical evaluation. In the case of a pathological objective examination, radiography was performed. Results Fifty-five patients (52.7% female, 52.7% with breech presentation, and 41.8% with a positive family history) met the inclusion criteria. The median age of gait onset was 13 months. The median age of orthopedic follow-up examination was 45 months. Only three patients (5.5%) had a pathological examination, but no x-ray were pathological. Conclusion Our study has not documented cases of late DDH. Considering the small study population and the only clinical follow-up, further studies are needed to clarify the possible late development of this condition.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The outcomes of Pavlik Harness (PH) management for Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip (DDH) are equivalent regardless of the initiation timing, if it is within the first 6 weeks of life. A PH may be a physical barrier to breastfeeding, which is important for nutrition, immunity, and normal child development. The diagnosis of DDH and early management with a PH may also negatively affect the maternal psychosocial wellbeing and the infant-maternal relationship. The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of the diagnosis of DDH and the management with a PH has on maternal wellbeing and maintenance of breastfeeding, compared with being screened for but not diagnosed with DDH. METHODS A retrospective cohort of the mothers of infants who were diagnosed with DDH and treated with a PH brace was compared with the mothers of infants who were screened for DDH only. The Hip Worries Inventory and Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale were completed by the mothers in both groups. The PH group also completed an in-house questionnaire specific to PH and breastfeeding. RESULTS Eighty completed surveys were included, 50 from the treatment group. The mean age of the PH initiation was 6.2 weeks. The modified Hip Worries Inventory score was higher in the treatment group, with a mean difference (MD) of 9.7 out of 50 (95% confidence interval, CI, 6.8, 12.5). The MD of the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale was 2.0 out of 30 (CI -0.5, 4.5). Although there was no difference in the breastfeeding ease before and after the PH initiation (MD-0.2, CI-0.7, 0.2), 83% of mothers found breastfeeding more difficult with a PH and 11% of mothers stopped breastfeeding earlier than planned because of the PH. CONCLUSIONS Mothers of infants with DDH worry more about their child's hips and the PH. Screening alone may contribute to maternal psychological dejection and negative thoughts. The presence of a PH makes breastfeeding more difficult. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Retrospective comparative study, level III.

Sex differences in musculoskeletal injury and disease risks across the lifespan: Are there unique subsets of females at higher risk than males for these conditions at distinct stages of the life cycle? Front Physiol 2023; 14:1127689.

Abstract
Sex differences have been reported for diseases of the musculoskeletal system (MSK) as well as the risk for injuries to tissues of the MSK system. For females, some of these occur prior to the onset of puberty, following the onset of puberty, and following the onset of menopause. Therefore, they can occur across the lifespan. While some conditions are related to immune dysfunction, others are associated with specific tissues of the MSK more directly. Based on this life spectrum of sex differences in both risk for injury and onset of diseases, a role for sex hormones in the initiation and progression of this risk is somewhat variable. Sex hormone receptor expression and functioning can also vary with life events such as the menstrual cycle in females, with different tissues being affected. Furthermore, some sex hormone receptors can affect gene expression independent of sex hormones and some transitional events such as puberty are accompanied by epigenetic alterations that can further lead to sex differences in MSK gene regulation. Some of the sex differences in injury risk and the post-menopausal disease risk may be "imprinted" in the genomes of females and males during development and sex hormones and their consequences only modulators of such risks later in life as the sex hormone milieu changes. The purpose of this review is to discuss some of the relevant conditions associated with sex differences in risks for loss of MSK tissue integrity across the lifespan, and further discuss several of the implications of their variable relationship with sex hormones, their receptors and life events.

J Orthop Surg Res 2022; 17:538. [PMID: 36510263 PMCID: PMC9743506 DOI: 10.1186/s13018-022-03432-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/07/2022] [Accepted: 12/04/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Developmental dysplasia of the hip is a common condition, which varies in severity. Abduction treatment is widely used to correct the development of the hips, but mild forms of DDH can also recover spontaneously. The purpose of this study was to evaluate factors affecting the rate of improvement of developmental dysplasia of the hip, and evaluate any risk factors slowing the process. MATERIAL AND METHODS The study population consisted of patients diagnosed with DDH in Tampere University hospital in the years 1998-2018. Data were retrospectively collected, and associations between clinical variables and rate of improvement were analyzed. Alpha angles were assessed monthly, and associations between risk factors and improvement of alpha angles were studied. A total of 948 patients were included in the analysis. RESULTS More severe first status of the hips was associated with faster improvement in dynamic ultrasound compared to milder DDH in univariate design in first 3 months of age; in the multivariable design, Ortolani positivity was conversely associated with lower alpha angles in 1-month follow-up. Immediate abduction treatment was associated with faster recovery rate compared to delayed abduction or watchful waiting. Female sex and positive family history were associated with slower rate of improvement and lower alpha angles. In multivariable design, female sex, positive family history and treatment strategy remained statistically significant as initiation time of the treatment explained the first found association of clinical hip status and the recovery rate after 2 months of age. CONCLUSION Female sex and positive family history might be independent risk factors for slower recovery in DDH before 6 months of age. These children might need special attention in their follow-up plans and abduction treatment.

Abstract
BackgroundHip ultrasound screening for DDH provides better sensitivity compared to physical examination. Due to a lower prevalence and limited resources, selective hip ultrasound in newborns at risk could be considered a proper screening protocol in Thailand and Asian countries.ObjectiveThis study was aimed to evaluate risk factors and define criteria for selective screening.MethodsA case-control study was conducted in 2020. All newborns with hip ultrasound screening were included. Cases were defined as newborns with abnormal hip ultrasounds, while controls were those with normal studies. Inter and intra-rater reliability were evaluated. All factors were analyzed using univariate and multivariate logistic regression. The model performance was tested by Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness of fit. Internal validity was performed by the split data method. Area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was estimated.ResultsNinety-five newborns (29 cases and 66 controls) were included. Eighty percent of cases and 58% of controls were female. The gestational age was 36.6 and 37.7 weeks in case and control, respectively. Female, breech presentation, positive Ortolani test, positive Barlow test, and limited hip abduction were significant factors with odds ratio of 2.82, 5.12, 34.21, 69.64, and 5.48, respectively. The final model included breech presentation, positive Ortolani test, and positive Barlow test. The model cut-off value 15.02 provided sensitivity (93.10%) and specificity were (80.30%). The area under the ROC curve was 0.9308. The split data remained significant internal validity for all factors with p-value < 0.05.ConclusionCareful history taking and physical examination are essential to identify the risk factors for DDH. Newborns with breech presentation, positive Ortolani test and positive Barlow test should be screened by hip ultrasound.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this qualitative study was to explore the experiences of Dutch parents of children with developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH), treated with a Pavlik harness, during the diagnostic and treatment process in the first year of life. DESIGN A qualitative study by means of semistructured interviews was conducted between September and December 2020. Qualitative content analysis was applied to code, categorise and thematise data. SETTING A large, tertiary referral centre for paediatric orthopaedics in the Netherlands. PARTICIPANTS A purposive sample of parents of children aged younger than 1 year, who were treated for DDH with a Pavlik harness, were interviewed until data saturation was achieved. A total of 20 interviews with 22 parents were conducted. RESULTS Five main themes emerged: (1) positive experiences with professionals and peers, (2) insufficient information, (3) treatment concerns, (4) difficulties parenting and (5) emotional burden. Most prominent features that resonated across the interviews which led to insecurity by parents were: insufficient pre-hospital information, unfiltered online information and the lack of overview of the patient journey. CONCLUSION This study offers novel insights into parental experiences in DDH care. Parents were generally satisfied with DDH care provided by the hospital. The biggest challenges were to cope with (1) insufficient and unfiltered information, (2) the lack of patient journey overview and (3) practical problems and emotional doubts, which led to concerns during treatment. Future research and interventions should focus on optimising information provision and guidance with practical and emotional support for parents of children with DDH.

Abstract
Background and Objectives: Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is one of the most common musculoskeletal conditions in children. If not treated, it leads to disability, gait abnormalities, limb shortening, and chronic pain. Our study aims to determine the impact of multiple risk factors on the incidence of DDH and to develop an interactive risk assessment tool. Materials and Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study in the Outpatient Clinic for Children of the Medical University of Warsaw Hospital. The Graf classification system was used for universal ultrasonographic screening. In total, 3102 infants met the eligibility criteria. Results: The incidence of DDH in the study group was 4.45%. The incidence of DDH in the Warsaw population, Poland, during the study period was 3.73 to 5.17 (95% CI). According to the multivariate analysis, the risk factors for DDH were birth weight (OR = 2.17 (1.41−3.32)), week of delivery (OR = 1.18 (1.00−1.37)), female sex (OR = 8.16 (4.86−13.71)), breech presentation (OR = 5.92 (3.37−10.40)), physical signs of DDH (25.28 (8.77−72.83)) and positive family history in siblings (5.74 (2.68−12.31)). Our results support the recent hypothesis that preterm infants (<37 weeks) have a lower rate of DDH. Conclusions: A multivariate logistic regression predictive model was used to build the risk calculator. The DDH risk calculator will be evaluated in a prospective validation study.

Abstract
As a surgical treatment option in symptomatic developmental dysplasia of the hip, periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) is often performed in female patients of childbearing age. Yet, to date, little is known about the procedure’s influence on postoperative pregnancies and the mode of delivery. Our study’s aim therefore was to investigate patient and physician decision making in women after PAO. We invited all patients who had undergone PAO in our institution from January 2015 to June 2017 to participate in a paper-based survey. Of these, we included all female patients and performed a retrospective chart review as well as analysis of pre- and postoperative radiological imaging. A total of 87 patients were included, 20 of whom gave birth to 26 children after PAO. The mean overall follow-up was 5.3 ± 0.8 years. Four (20.0%) patients reported that their obstetrician was concerned due to their history of PAO. The mean time before the first child’s birth was 2.9 ± 1.3 years. Eleven (55.0%) patients underwent cesarean section for the first delivery after PAO, three of whom reported their history of PAO as the reason for this type of delivery. Patients with a history of PAO have a higher risk of delivering a child by cesarean section compared with the general population, in which the rate of cesarean section is reported to be 29.7%. As cesarean sections are associated with increased morbidity and mortality compared with vaginal deliveries, evidence-based recommendations for pregnancies after pelvic osteotomy are needed.
