The Pavlik harness in the treatment of congenital dislocating hip: report on a multicenter study of the European Paediatric Orthopaedic Society.

The results of functional treatment using the Pavlik harness in congenital dislocation and congenital dysplasia of the hip in children aged less than 11 months were examined by an EPOS study group. This study was conducted on 3,611 hips in 2,636 patients for a period of 1-9 years after treatment. The reduction rate was 92% in grade Tonnis 2 and 3; the healing rate was 80%. In children with dysplastic hips, the healing rate was 95.35%. Avascular necrosis of the femoral head was observed in 2.38%. The Pavlik harness is designed for outpatient treatment if the parents are compliant.

Role of surgery in the prevention and correction of hip subluxation and dislocation in cerebral palsy.

Forty-three patients (80 hips) were available for clinical and radiological follow-up. These patients underwent adductor tenotomies separately or in combination with other procedures on the hip, with or without proximal femural correction. The range of abduction in all hips before surgery was 40 degrees or less, and in 54 hips combined with flexion-contracture (10 degrees-50 degrees).

Reoperation in treatment of clubfoot.

We evaluated 118 operations (including 57 reoperations) on clubfeet. We concluded that relapse is most often the consequence of insufficient primary surgery, and the less sufficient the intervention, the more severe the relapse or residual deformity. The severity of deformity is determined and shown, first of all, by the position of calcaneum. In milder cases, soft tissue operation can prove useful, whereas more severe cases require bony intervention as well. The second, rarer cause of relapse was the fact that the foot was originally stiff and nonreducible. These feet may need multiple reoperations.
