[Results of treatment with Pavlik harness for congenital dislocation of the hip (author's transl)].

The results of treatment with Pavlik harness in 168 hip joints have been reviewed. The average follow-up period was 8 years 6 months. In total 114 hip joints were treated only by Pavlik harness. Four hip joints were treated by surgical methods after conservative treatment. The results were very good in 81.0%. Subluxated hips were in 8.9%. Coxa valga et antetorta in 6.0% and deformed head in 4.1%. In a high percentage of our cases radiologically very good results were found. Joint development must be further followed up.
