[Treatment of inveterate pathologic dislocation of the hip caused by meta-epiphyseal osteomyelitis].

The authors comment on the results of treatment of 40 children with inveterate pathologic dislocation of the hip caused by meta-epiphyseal osteomyelitis. Conservative setting of the dislocation which they carried out in children aged below 3 years by the methods described in the article was positive in a little less than half of the patients with preserved or only partly destroyed head and neck of the femur. When conservative treatment is not successful, the choice of the method of surgical intervention is determined by the degree of the morphological changes in the hip joint.
