Chiari osteotomy
- Discussion:
- most of these pts will require
open reduction;
- usually involves
open reduction combined with
femoral shortening;
- femoral shortening:
- aids in reduction;
- decreases potential complications;
- technically difficult;
-
Traction:
- should not be used, because of increased AVN & redislocation;
- Acetabular Osteotomies;
- indicated in older children with residual dysplasia and subluxation in
whom remodeling of the acetabulum can no longer be anticipated;
