About this study

To determine the role of arthroscopy in treatment of the DDH.

Read the detailed description
  • The term developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is composed of a spectrum of pathologies from stable acetabular dysplasia (femoral head centered in acetabulum but acetabulum is shallow) to concentric hips that are unstable (femoral head can be moved in and out of the confines of the acetabulum) and frankly dislocated hips in which there is a complete loss of contact between the femoral head and acetabulum.
  • Open reduction , traditionally through a Smith - Peterson approach should be considered only if closed reduction cannot be performed.
  • Medial open surgical reduction is a choice for the management of patients younger than 18 months with DDH. The minimal incision and minimal blood loss are advantages of this approach. Limited exposure of the hip joint is a disadvantage.
  • The arthroscopic procedure was reported to represent a meaningful alternative to the open procedure due to a lower complication rate, a safe setting, a lower rate of residual dysplasia, no observed redislocation and low rate occurrence of osteonecrosis.
  • All the intra-articular structures (hypertrophic ligamentum teres, transverse acetabular ligament, and pulvinar tissue) in the acetabulum that impede the reduction of the femoral head could be eliminated by using the arthroscopic technique.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • arthroscopically assistedProcedure or surgery

    Also called arthroscopically assisted surgical reduction

    Arthroscopically-Assisted reduction through anterolateral portal for visualization and other accessory portals for instrumentation to achieve reduction and postoperative immobilization in a hip spica.

  • open surgical reductionProcedure or surgery

    Open reduction through a bikini incision anterior approach and postoperative immobilization in a hip spica.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Determination the success of reduction and incidence of redislocation rate

    Documentation of concentric reduction of the hip in immediate postoperative MRI as an assessment tool for the success of the procedure.

    Measured: immediately postoperative

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Assessment of the cosmetic appearance .

    Documentation the wound size after 3 months follow up in clinical examination as an assessment tool of cosmotic appearance

    Measured: 3 month follow up

  2. Assessment of the shortening

    Assessment the incidence of leg length discrepancy and shortening that affect walking after one year follow up in clinical examination and x-ray as an assessment tool of shortening

    Measured: 1 year follow up

  3. Assessment the incidence stiffness and decrease range of motion of the affected hip

    documentation the range of motion of the affected hip and incidence of stiffness after 6 months follow up in clinical examination as an assessment tool of stiffness.

    Measured: 1 year follow up

  4. Assessment the incidence of avascular necrosis in the affected hip

    documentation the incidence of avascular necrosis of the affected head of hip after one year follow up in clinical examination and x-ray

    Measured: 1 year follow up

What does the primary outcome measure?

Determination the success of reduction and incidence of redislocation rate (time frame: immediately postoperative). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06408987, which also lists 5 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
