Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with developmental dysplasia of the hip may require pelvic osteotomies to improve acetabular coverage. The purpose of this study was to compare the changes in acetabular version, tilt, and regional coverage angles following the San Diego acetabuloplasty (SDA), the modified San Diego acetabuloplasty (mSDA), and the Pemberton acetabuloplasty (PA). METHODS Fourteen patients with developmental dysplasia of the hip and computed tomography (CT) imaging were identified. From CT images, 2 identical pelvises were 3-dimensional-printed for each patient. Bone was printed with rigid material, and cartilage with flexible material. For each model pair, the SDA was performed on one and the PA was performed on the other. CT scans were obtained before and after acetabuloplasties. Next, the bone graft in the SDA model was moved anteriorly, representing the mSDA, and the model was rescanned. Acetabular version, tilt, and coverage angles (posterior, superior-posterior, superior, superior-anterior, and anterior) were calculated. Preoperative to postoperative differences were compared (repeated measures analysis of variance or Wilcoxon signed rank test). The significance was set to P <0.05. RESULTS The mean age at CT was 5.8±1.2 years (range: 3.9 to 7.5 y). All 3 procedures (SDA, mSDA, and PA) significantly increased acetabular tilt; P <0.045), with a similar change observed for all 3 ( P =0.868). PA was the only procedure to significantly decrease relative acetabular version (6.5±6.5 degrees, preoperative: 12.9±5.3 degrees; P =0.004). Both the SDA and mSDA procedures significantly increased coverage in the superior-posterior octant (SDA: 92.6±9.3 degrees, mSDA: 92.3±9.8 degrees, preoperative: 81.9±9.5 degrees; P <0.02), with a similar percent change among the 2 ( P =1.0). All 3 procedures significantly increased superior coverage ( P <0.04); the increase was similar among the 3 ( P =0.205). The PA was the only procedure to produce a significant increase in coverage in the superior-anterior octant (91.0±16.7 degrees, preoperative: 74.0±12.1 degrees; P =0.005) or the anterior octant (50.7±11.7 degrees, preoperative: 45.8±8.9 degrees; P =0.012). CONCLUSIONS The SDA and mSDA procedures produced similar postoperative changes, primarily in the superior and superior-posterior acetabular octants. Placing the graft more anteriorly did not increase anterior coverage in the mSDA, and only the PA increased coverage in the superior and superior-anterior acetabular octants.

Abstract
Objectives Slipped capital femoral epiphyses (SCFE) is a common pediatric hip disease with the risk of osteoarthritis and impingement deformities, and 3D models could be useful for patient-specific analysis. Therefore, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) bone segmentation and feasibility of 3D printing and of 3D ROM simulation using MRI-based 3D models were investigated. Methods A retrospective study involving 22 symptomatic patients (22 hips) with SCFE was performed. All patients underwent preoperative hip MR with pelvic coronal high-resolution images (T1 images). Slice thickness was 0.8-1.2 mm. Mean age was 12 ± 2 years (59% male patients). All patients underwent surgical treatment. Semi-automatic MRI-based bone segmentation with manual corrections and 3D printing of plastic 3D models was performed. Virtual 3D models were tested for computer-assisted 3D ROM simulation of patients with knee images and were compared to asymptomatic contralateral hips with unilateral SCFE (15 hips, control group). Results MRI-based bone segmentation was feasible (all patients, 100%, in 4.5 h, mean 272 ± 52 min). Three-dimensional printing of plastic 3D models was feasible (all patients, 100%) and was considered helpful for deformity analysis by the treating surgeons for severe and moderate SCFE. Three-dimensional ROM simulation showed significantly (p < 0.001) decreased flexion (48 ± 40°) and IR in 90° of flexion (-14 ± 21°, IRF-90°) for severe SCFE patients with MRI compared to control group (122 ± 9° and 36 ± 11°). Slip angle improved significantly (p < 0.001) from preoperative 54 ± 15° to postoperative 4 ± 2°. Conclusion MRI-based 3D models were feasible for SCFE patients. Three-dimensional models could be useful for severe SCFE patients for preoperative 3D printing and deformity analysis and for ROM simulation. This could aid for patient-specific diagnosis, treatment decisions, and preoperative planning. MRI-based 3D models are radiation-free and could be used instead of CT-based 3D models in the future.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Accurate repositioning of the femoral head in patients with Slipped Capital Femoral Epiphysis (SCFE) undergoing Imhäuser osteotomy is very challenging. The objective of this study is to determine if preoperative 3D planning and a 3D-printed surgical guide improve the accuracy of the placement of the femoral head. METHODS This retrospective study compared outcome parameters of patients who underwent a classic Imhäuser osteotomy from 2009 to 2013 with those who underwent an Imhäuser osteotomy using 3D preoperative planning and 3D-printed surgical guides from 2014 to 2021. The primary endpoint was improvement in Range of Motion (ROM) of the hip. Secondary outcomes were radiographic improvement (Southwick angle), patient-reported clinical outcomes regarding hip and psychosocial complaints assessed with two questionnaires and duration of surgery. RESULTS In the 14 patients of the 3D group radiographic improvement was slightly greater and duration of surgery was slightly shorter than in the 7 patients of the classis Imhäuser group. No difference was found in the ROM, and patient reported clinical outcomes were slightly less favourable. CONCLUSIONS Surprisingly we didn't find a significant difference between the two groups. Further research on the use of 3D planning an 3D-printed surgical guides is needed. TRIAL REGISTRATION Approval for this study was obtained of the local ethics committees of both hospitals.

Abstract
The effect on acetabular management in developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) patients aged 7 or older with modified low Dega osteotomy procedure was evaluated. Patients between 7 and 14 years old were managed with modified low Dega osteotomy and open reduction and concomitant procedures to evaluate whether low level osteotomy improved the clinical and radiologic outcomes after treatment. Clinical status was assessed using the modified McKay's criteria; radiologic evaluations were assessed for the modified Severin classification, the mean acetabular index (AI), Sharp angle and center-edge (CE) angle. And occurrence of triradiate cartilage injury and complications was recorded. Forty-two DDH patients (57 hips) between 7 and 14 years old were managed with modified low Dega osteotomy. The results demonstrated the latest follow-up 43 hips (75.4%) were rated excellent and 10 hips (17.5%) rated good according to the modified McKay criteria and 41 hips (71.9%) were rated excellent and 11 hips (19.3%) rated good according to Modified Severin classification, respectively. The mean Hip Score improved from 69.53 ± 7.14 before the operation to 93.17 ± 8.43 at the final follow-up. The mean AI changed from 31.9° to 20.2°, mean Sharp angle decreased from 59.3° to 38.8° and mean CE angle increased from -10.9° to 35.2°, preoperatively and at latest follow-up, respectively. The modified low Dega osteotomy combined with open reduction and concomitant procedures were found to be adequate in improving instant and sustained clinical and radiographic outcomes for the late detected pediatric walking DDH patients.

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
Developmental dysplasia of hip seriously affects the health of children, and pelvic osteotomy is an important part of surgical treatment. Improving the shape of the acetabulum, preventing or delaying the progression of osteoarthritis is the ultimate goal of pelvic osteotomies. Re-directional osteotomies, reshaping osteotomies and salvage osteotomies are the three most common types of pelvic osteotomy. The influence of different pelvic osteotomy on acetabular morphology is different, and the acetabular morphology after osteotomy is closely related to the prognosis of the patients. But there lacks comparison of acetabular morphology between different pelvic osteotomies, on the basis of retrospective analysis and measurable imaging indicators, this study predicted the acetabular shape after developmental dysplasia of the hip pelvic osteotomy in order to help clinicians make reasonable and correct decisions and improve the planning and performance of pelvic osteotomy.

Abstract
The present study aims to investigate the effect of amount of lateralization and/or anteversion of the point where the iliac cut meets with the posterior column cut of periacetabular osteotomy (PAO), on X-ray parameters such as Center of edge (CE) angle, retroversion index (RVI) and sharp angle. Fourteen patients with symptomatic hip dysplasia (CE° < 20°) were included. Pelvis Computerized tomography (CT) sections were used for 3D printing. PAO was then performed on these models. The point (A), 1 cm lateral to the pelvic brim, is marked where the iliac cut intersects the posterior column cut. In Group I (1.5–0), point A is lateralized parallel to the osteotomy line for 1.5 cm. In Group II (1.5–0.5), it is additionally anteverted for 0.5 cm. In Group III (3–0), point A is lateralized for 3 cm and then additionally anteverted for 1 cm (Group IV: 3–1). Radiographs were taken in each stage. The lateral CE angle, RVI and sharp angle were measured. All had an increase in the CE angle and RVI and a decrease in the sharp angle compared to the control group (P < 0.05). The amount of CE angle (ΔCE) or RVI increase (ΔRV) was as follows: 3–1(38°, 0.3) > 3–0(27°, 0.2) and 1.5–0.5(25°, 0.1) > 1.5–0(17°, 0.07) (P < 0.05) (with no difference between groups 1.5–0.5 and 3–0, P = 0.7). The amount of sharp angle decrease was as follows: 3–1(20°), 3–0(18°) < 1.5–0.5(11°) < 1.5–0(8°) (P < 0.05). The lateralization of the intersection point where the iliac wing cut meets with the posterior column cut along the cut surface led to an increase of lateral cover and focal retroversion. Additional anteversion leads to further increases in those parameters, while groups 1.5–0.5 and 3–0 did not differ between.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Many aspects of developmental hip dysplasia (DDH) care and evaluation are still active areas of debate. Recent studies have provided more insight into these topics such as strategies for reducing osteonecrosis, assessing hip reduction after closed and open reduction, and the management of residual acetabular dysplasia. RECENT FINDINGS The presence of the ossific nucleus at the time of reduction does not alter the risk of osteonecrosis. The risk of osteonecrosis may be higher when hips are immobilized in excessive abduction. Limited sequence MRI may be the best choice for assessing hip reduction after closed and open reduction; however, new technologies are emerging such as 3D fluoroscopy and perfusion MRI. The treatment of residual acetabular dysplasia with bracing has been shown to be effective and the decision to perform a pelvic osteotomy is based on patient-specific factors. The spectrum of DDH treatment has evolved over the past several decades. Recent studies have provided insights into strategies for osteonecrosis prevention, hip evaluation during after reduction, and the management of residual acetabular dysplasia. However, there is ample room for additional and more rigorous studies guiding advanced imaging for assessing hip reduction such as 3D fluoroscopy and perfusion MRI, as well as the management of residual acetabular dysplasia.

Abstract
The importance of precisely understanding the pathoanatomy of acetabular dysplasia prior to surgical treatment has long been recognized. Acetabuloplasties for neuromuscular hip dysplasia have typically aimed to improve the acetabulum by increasing posterior-superior coverage, as previous three-dimensional (3-D) computed tomography (CT) studies have shown that acetabular dysplasia in neuromuscular hips is primarily in the direction of posterior-superior subluxation or dislocation. The purpose of this study was to identify differences in 3-D morphology between normal hips and dysplastic neuromuscular hips, specifically to identify areas of acetabular deficiency to guide preoperative decision-making. Patients treated for neuromuscular hip dysplasia at a single institution between 2009 and 2017 with a preoperative high-resolution pelvic CT scan (28 hips) were evaluated with custom software to measure acetabular morphology. Acetabuli were divided into equal octants; coverage angles were measured for each octant of interest. Variables were compared with age- and sex-matched normal controls (56 hips). We found a wide range of hip pathology in our study cohort. Five hips had no sectors with abnormal coverage. One hip (4%) was overcovered anteriorly. The remaining pathology was undercoverage located anteriorly [n = 7 (25%)], superiorly [n = 6 (21%)], posteriorly [n = 4 (14%)] or globally [n = 5 (18%)]. Our findings indicate that individual patients with neuromuscular acetabular dysplasia have unique deformities that do not uniformly conform to a specific area of acetabular deficiency. It is imperative to define the specific 3-D acetabular deficiency location and magnitude for accurate preoperative planning. Level of evidence: Level III.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Management of hip instability in children with Down syndrome is a challenging task to undertake for even the most experienced surgeons. As life expectancy of these patients increases, the importance of preserving functional mobility and hip joint stability in order to minimize late hip degeneration and pain has become a priority. The aim of this study is to evaluate the clinical and radiographic outcomes of children with Down syndrome and hip instability who underwent surgical reconstruction with femoral and/or acetabular procedures. METHODS We performed a retrospective review of all children with Down syndrome age 18 years and younger, who underwent surgical intervention to address hip instability between 2003 and 2017. Data was recorded detailing the patient's demographics, preoperative and postoperative functional status and surgical details. Preoperative and postoperative radiographic analysis was performed as well as 3-dimensional computed tomography scan evaluation, when available. All major and minor complications were recorded and classified using the Severin radiographic classification and the Clavien-Dindo-Sink clinical classification. RESULTS We studied 28 hips in 19 children that were followed for an average of 4.4 years postsurgical intervention for hip instability. The majority of patients improved in all radiographic parameters. A total of 14 hips (50%) had complications and 9 hips (32%) required a secondary surgery. Of those complications, 2 hips (7%) developed avascular necrosis and 4 hips (14%) developed recurrent instability after the index procedure. Two of these hips had a subsequent anteverting periacetabular osteotomy that produced a stable hip at final follow up. DISCUSSION Surgical management of hip instability in children with Down syndrome remains challenging. The treating surgeon must have a thorough understanding of the pathoanatomy and design the surgical treatment to meet all of the underlying sources of instability. Combined femoral and acetabular osteotomies plus capsulorrhaphy are often required along with postoperative hip spica immobilization. Although complication and revision surgery rates are high, hip stability and good functional outcomes can be achieved.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Three-dimensional (3D) printing is prevailing in surgical planning of complex cases. The aim of this study is to describe the use of 3D printed models during the surgical planning for the treatment of four pediatric hip deformity cases. Moreover, pediatric pelvic deformities analyzed by 3D printed models have been object of a concise review. METHODS All treated patients were females, with an average age of 5 years old. Patients' dysplastic pelvises were 3D-printed in real scale using processed files from Computed Tomography (CT) or Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). Data about 3D printing, surgery time, blood loss and fluoroscopy have been recorded. RESULTS The Zanoli-Pemberton or Ganz-Paley osteotomies were performed on the four 3D printed models, then the real surgery was performed in the operating room. Time and costs to produce 3D printed models were respectively on average 17:26 h and 34.66 €. The surgical duration took about 87.5 min while the blood loss average was 1.9 ml/dl. Fluoroscopy time was 21 sec. MRI model resulted inaccurate and more difficult to produce. 10 papers have been selected for the concise literature review. CONCLUSIONS 3D printed models have proved themselves useful in the reduction of surgery time, blood loss and ionizing radiation, as well as they have improved surgical outcomes. 3D printed model is a valid tool to deepen the complex anatomy and orientate surgical choices by allowing surgeons to carefully plan the surgery.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Different factors can lead to inconsistencies in measurement for the acetabular version using 2D axial CT-cuts. We have defined a "true" anteversion angle (AV angle) in the physiological position of the pelvis in 3D with the largest European population measured to our knowledge. MATERIAL AND METHODS We analyzed 258 hemipelvises and created 3D models. We compared the results of our AV angle 3D method with the cross-sectional cuts of the same acetabula. We included factors like side, sex, body mass index, and patient positioning. RESULTS Overall, the mean (SD) AV angle was 16.1 (5.9)° as measured with the 3D method and 22.0 (6.0)° as measured with the 2D method (p < 0.0001). Measured with both the 3D and the 2D method, the AV angle was significantly larger in female than in male individuals (p < 0.0001). In the 2D method, the AV angle estimation was influenced by the pelvic tilt. CONCLUSION We propose a more accurate method for the measurement of the AV angle of the acetabulum in a 3D model that is not influenced by patient positioning or pelvic tilt. We provide a computational model that will facilitate operative decisions and improve preoperative planning. We confirm that 3D measurement should be the gold standard in measuring the acetabular anteversion.

Abstract
PURPOSE In hip dysplasia the Pemberton osteotomy can modify the shape of the acetabulum and is indicated for children aged between two and 12 when the triradiate cartilage is still open. However, there have been concerns about acetabular retroversion following this type of osteotomy. The studies, however, have been based on plain radiographs. The aim of our investigation was to assess the 3D acetabular orientation in patients with previous Pemberton osteotomy after skeletal maturation. METHODS Ten patients with 12 operated hips were included who received Pemberton osteotomy for hip dysplasia between January 3, 2005 and March 25, 2011. Mean age at surgery and at follow-up were 7.2 years (sd 3.7) and 19.2 years (sd 3.7), respectively. MRIs were conducted with 1.5 T. Besides the measurement of acetabular version, the analysis included alpha angles, acetabular sector angles (ASAs) as well as modified ASAs (cartilage covered area angles). Furthermore, the presence of osteoarthritis (OA) as well as acetabular retroversion was determined on plain radiographs. Patient-related outcome measures included the international Hip Outcome Tool (iHOT) and EuroQol-5-Dimensions (EQ5D) scores. RESULTS In comparison with the contralateral native and healthy hips the operated hips showed similar version (19.5° (sd 4.6°) versus 18.6° (sd 7.0°); p = 0.974). Also, there were no differences in terms of femoral head sphericity (alpha angles) and acetabular coverage (ASA angles). Five of 12 Pemberton hips showed signs of beginning OA (Kellgren-Lawrence classification I or II) while none of the non-operated hips did. Patients who received surgery before the age of six years had similar functional and radiological results when compared with patients who were older than six years at surgery. Among all patients, iHOT was 91.9 (sd 10.0) and EQ5D was 90.3 (sd 7.3)). CONCLUSION The Pemberton osteotomy provides good long-term radiographic and functional results without compromising acetabular version or coverage. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III: retrospective comparative study.

Abstract
Three-dimensional (3D) printing technology is increasingly being utilized in various surgical specialities. In paediatric orthopaedics it has been applied in the pre-operative and intra-operative stages, allowing complex deformities to be replicated and patient-specific instrumentation to be used. This systematic review analyses the literature on the effect of 3D printing on paediatric orthopaedic osteotomy outcomes.A systematic review of several databases was conducted according to PRISMA guidelines. Studies evaluating the use of 3D printing technology in orthopaedic osteotomy procedures in children (aged ≤ 16 years) were included. Spinal and bone tumour surgery were excluded. Data extracted included demographics, disease pathology, target bone, type of technology, imaging modality used, qualitative/quantitative outcomes and follow-up. Articles were further categorized as either 'pre-operative' or 'intra-operative' applications of the technology.Twenty-two articles fitting the inclusion criteria were included. The reported studies included 212 patients. There were five articles of level of evidence 3 and 17 level 4.A large variety of outcomes were reported with the most commonly used being operating time, fluoroscopic exposure and intra-operative blood loss.A significant difference in operative time, fluoroscopic exposure, blood loss and angular correction was found in the 'intra-operative' application group. No significant difference was found in the 'pre-operative' category.Despite a relatively low evidence base pool of studies, our aggregate data demonstrate a benefit of 3D printing technology in various deformity correction applications, especially when used in the 'intra-operative' setting. Further research including paediatric-specific core outcomes is required to determine the potential benefit of this novel addition. Cite this article: EFORT Open Rev 2021;6:130-138.

Abstract
Background The paediatric patient population has considerable variation in anatomy. The use of Computed Tomography (CT)-based digital models to design three-dimensionally printed patient specific instrumentation (PSI) has recently been applied for correction of deformity in orthopedic surgery. This review sought to determine the existing application of this technology currently in use within paediatric orthopaedics, and assess the potential benefits that this may provide to patients and surgeons. Methods A review was performed of MEDLINE, EMBASE, and CENTRAL for published literature, as well as Web of Science and clinicaltrials.gov for grey literature. The search strategy revolved around the research question: “What is the clinical impact of using 3D printed PSI for proximal femoral or pelvic osteotomy in paediatric orthopaedics?” Two reviewers, using predetermined inclusion criteria, independently performed title and abstract review in order to select articles for full text review. Data extracted included effect on operating time and intraoperative image use, as well as osteotomy and screw positioning accuracy. Data were combined in a narrative synthesis; meta-analysis was not performed given the diversity of study designs and interventions. Results In total, ten studies were included: six case control studies, three case series and a case report. Five studies directly compared operating time using PSI to conventional techniques, with two showing a significant decrease in the number of intraoperative images and operative time. Eight studies reported improved accuracy in executing the surgical plan compared to conventional methods. Conclusion Compared to conventional methods of performing femoral or pelvic osteotomy, use of PSI has led to improved accuracy and precision, decreased procedure times, and decreased intra-operative imaging requirements. Additionally, the technology has become more cost effective and accessible since its initial inception and use.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study is to assess the pelvis's morphology and spatial orientation of the acetabulum, and their relation to the severity of Congenital Femoral Deficiency (CFD) using 3D imaging. Defining these pathologies is crucial for adequate surgical correction. METHODS The shape and structure of the acetabulum and pelvis were evaluated in 14 children with unilateral CFD via 3D computed tomography (CT) scans, and then analysed with geometric morphometrics (Procrustes ANOVA). The association between pelvic directional asymmetry and CFD classifications (Aitken, Paley) was assessed. The affected acetabulum's orientation was compared to the non-affected side, and the variability of orientation in different CFD types was evaluated (bivariate correlation). RESULTS The hemipelvis with CFD is characterized by a smaller acetabulum, a laterally curved ischium and a less upright ilium (p < 0.001). Multivariate regressions revealed a greater level of pelvis asymmetry in more severe types of CFD (p < 0.001). The acetabulum orientation assessment showed a significant decrease in mean anteversion (1.3°) and inclination (9.6°) angle, when compared to the non-affected side (26°and 17.1° respectively; p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS The affected side of the pelvis is considerably smaller and more deformed, and this should be considered during limb lengthening. The acetabulum presents with significant dysplasia due to its severe retroversion and steepness (superoposterior distortion). This should not be interpreted as a simple wall deficit, but as a complete acetabular misalignment (often misinterpreted in 2D imagery). Using transiliac osteotomies (e.g. Dega, Salter) is debatable due to abnormal acetabular orientation (superoposterior malalignment). Therefore, alternative options, e.g. San Diego or triple pelvic osteotomy, should be considered.

Abstract
BACKGROUND An increasing number of studies about the hip joint morphology with childhood-specific hip diseases have been reported. But there have been few reports on pelvic morphology of healthy children. The purpose of this study was to assess the pelvic morphology of healthy children in detail and clarify the age-related change and gender difference of it. METHODS We retrospectively assessed the pelvic morphology of 97 healthy children (3-18 years old) using their pelvic computed tomography (CT) data. Superior iliac angle (SIA), inferior iliac angle (IIA), and ischiopubic angle (IPA) as the parameters of pelvic winging, and acetabular anteversion and anterior acetabular sector angle (AASA), posterior acetabular sector angle (PASA), superior acetabular sector angle (SASA) as the parameters of acetabular coverage, are measured. Pearson's correlation coefficient was used for examining the correlation between the each measurement and the age of cases. Multiple linear regression analysis was performed to investigate the possibility of association of age and sex with each measurement. RESULTS In female, it was found that IIA, AASA, PASA, SASA were significantly correlated with the age of the cases. And in male, SIA, IIA, IPA, AASA, PASA were significantly correlated with the age. Multiple linear regression analysis revealed the significant difference of the distribution between males and females was observed in IIA, IPA, AVcen, PASA, and these measurements were lager for female. CONCLUSIONS In this study, we revealed the age-related change and gender difference of the pelvic morphology of healthy children, and this could be useful information in evaluating the hip with what appears to be an abnormal acetabular anteversion and acetabular inclination in the patients with childhood specific hip disease. Additionally, it will also help us to make operation plans pertaining to the hip.
