Current concepts in developmental dysplasia of the hip and Total hip arthroplasty

Abstract Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is a spectrum of pathology that involves dysplasia of both the acetabulum and the femur. If left untreated, it can develop to hip pain and osteoarthritis, which eventually require total hip arthroplasty (THA). A broad array of anatomical abnormalitie...
