Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Pelvic osteotomy in the treatment of children with developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) has been widely used, but for younger children there are some limitations in the traditional treatment methods, which requires the implantation of autologous iliac in the osteotomy gap.
OBJECTIVE: To discuss the efficacy of allogenic bone transplantation in the treatment of pediatric DDH.
METHODS: A retrospective study was carried out in 36 DDH patients aged 1.5-3.0 years undergoing allogenic bone transplantation. The treatment of hip dislocation was evaluated by imaging.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The follow-up of 1.0-2.5 years after treatment showed that there was no incision drainage; none of patients had slight pain in the hip, no rejection, no allograft bone displacement and absorption. Imaging evaluation for the efficacy of hip dislocation showed that 38 hips were excellent and good (90%), three hips were fair (7%) and one hip was poor (3%) after treatment. The follow-up result of allogenic bone transplantation for pediatric DDH was satisfied.
