Objective: This study aimed to determine the short- and medium-term outcomes of hip dislocation in infants who failed Pavlik harness therapy and were subsequently treated with brace, closed reduction (CR) or open reduction (OR) before 6 months of age. Methods: Fifty infants (66 hip dislocations) who failed Pavlik harness therapy between 2000 and 2018 and were treated with a rigid abduction brace or undergoing a CR or OR/cast were evaluated. All demographic data obtained from the medical system, developments and complications during the follow-up and treatment process were recorded and evaluated. Results: Fifty infants (66 hips) with dislocated hips failed Pavlik harness therapy. Of these, 9 infants (12 hips) underwent rigid abduction splint therapy: 9 hips were successful, 2 hips had CR and 1 had OR. Thirty-eight infants (51 hips) had index CR, of which 3 (3 hips) failed and had OR. Radiographs of 49 hips (44 patients) were normal at the final evaluation. Pavlik harness therapy starting after 3 weeks (P = 0.028) and unilateral dislocations (P = 0.028) increased the risk of needing operating room. There was an association between OR and avascular necrosis (P = 0.025), but not between OR and other complications—dysplasia and re-dislocation/subluxation (P = 0.257 and P = 0.508, respectively). Conclusion: Closed treatment of hip dislocation is possible in most babies who fail Pavlik treatment. Babies who are started on Pavlik therapy after 3 weeks of age may be at increased risk of needing an operating room. Level of Evidence: IV. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
