SummaryTreatment of canine hip dysplasia (CHD) via triple pelvic osteotomy (TPO) is widely accepted as the treatment that best preserves the existing hip joint. TPO, however, has several important disadvantages. In an effort to avoid some of the difficulties associated with TPO an alternative method of creating acetabular ventroversion (AW) was sought. The purpose of this study was to explore the effects of placement of a wedge in the sacroiliac (SI) joint on A W and to compare this to the effect of TPO on A W . On one hemipelvis a 30° pelvic osteotomy plate was used for TPO. The contralateral hemipelvis had a 28° SI wedge inserted into the SI joint. Pre- and postsurgical radiographs of each pelvis were taken and the angular measurements were recorded. On average, the 28° SI wedge resulted in 20.9° of A W, the 30° canine pelvic osteotomy plate resulted in 24.9° A W . Significant differences were not found (p >0.05) between the two techniques. Sacroiliac wedge rotation effectively creates A W and has several theoretical advantages when compared to TPO. The in vivo effects of sacroiliac wedge rotation should be studied in order to evaluate the clinical effect of the technique.Sacroiliac wedge rotation was tested as an alternative method to increase the angle of acetabular ventroversion. This technique effectively rotated the acetabulum and has several theoretical advantages when compared to triple pelvic osteotomy.

The increase in the number of patients with hip pathologies among children of different ages makes the diagnosis and treatment of these diseases one of the most actually existing problems in modern orthopedics. The aim of the work was to determine the features of the lipid peroxidation system - antioxidant protection and hemogram indices in children with various forms of hip joint pathology. The results of a preoperative examination of 47 patients aged 6-15 years (average age 10.3 years) who were treated at the clinic “FSBI NICC“ TO ”named after academician G. A. Ilizarova, Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation. There were 25 boys and 20 girls. Given nosology, patients were divided into five groups. The diagnosis was established on the basis of a clinical and radiological examination. Group I consisted of 8 male patients with stage II Perthes disease (mean age 8.75 + 1.63). Group II includes 16 patients (8 boys, 7 girls) with stage III Perthes disease. (average age 11.80 + 0.89). Group III included 12 patients (6 boys, 6 girls) with aseptic necrosis of the femoral head (average age 14.7 + 2.35). Group IV consisted of 4 patients (1 boy, 3 girls) with epiphyseal dysplasia. (average age 10.25 + 1.36). Group V includes 7 patients with hip dysplasia complicated by aseptic necrosis of the femoral head (mean age 8.33 + 2.11). The norm is the data that was obtained after examining 10 healthy male adolescents (age 13-14) and 5 female adolescents (age 8-14 years). Changes in lipid peroxidation rates and antioxidant activity are unidirectional in different forms of pathology of the hip joints in children, and the content of peroxidation products reliably correlates with hemogram values in stage II osteochondropathy and complicated hip dysplasia. In the complex of diagnostic measures for children with dystrophic lesions of the hip joint, to clarify the nature and stage of the pathological process, as additional criteria, hemogram indicators and lipid peroxidation systems - antioxidant protection can be used.

Overview: Coronary angiography is the gold standard for definitive diagnosis of obstructive ischemic coronary disease. However, this is an invasive, expensive test, and may have a number of complications. Models of pre-test probability (PTP) in the guideline of the European Society of Cardiology 2013 and 2019 are easy to use and apply even to doctors who are not cardiologists, and can be implemented at the medical facilities. We aim to assess the sensitivity and specificity of different PTP stratification models follow ESC2013 and 2019; and their use in the relation to SYNTAX score and cardiovascular risk factors. Materials and Methods: Patients (n=108) with chest pain had been treated at Ninh Thuan Provincial Hospital from January 2019 to May 2020. The PTP stratification models were calculated according to the recommendations of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) 2013 and 2019. Coronary angiography was enrolled for the diagnosis, Quantitative coronary analyzed (QCA) - based stenosis assessment was used with a cut-off of ≥ 50% diameter reduction for significant lesions of coronary artery and SYNTAX score were calculated.Diagnostic accuracy was calculated by usingsensitivity, specificitywhich were analyzed by using statistical software SPSS version 20.0. Results: In the 2013 pre-test probability model,group withmedium PTP andhigh PTPhad the sensitivity of 57.14%, 100% respectively; the overall sensitivity for both groups (the medium and high pre-test) was 59.36%; and the specificity was 58.33%. In the 2019PTP model, group withmedium PTP and high PTP had the sensitivity of 41.67%, of 67.57% respectively;the overall sensitivity for both groups (the medium and high scores PTP) was 61.22%; and the specificity was 80%. The group of low SYNTAXscore (<23) had at most 93 cases, accounting for 86.1%; the lowest was the group of high SYNTAX score (≥ 33 points) accounting for 2.8%. There were statistically significant differences in patients with and without smoking, history of hypertension for both PTP model 2013 and 2019. Conclusion: Sensitivity and specificity of the 2013 and 2019 PTP were quite high in the relation to the severity of coronary artery which were evaluated by SYNTAX score.

This is a book of particular value and interest to pediatricians, although written by an orthopedic surgeon. It explains concisely and graphically the early signs of hip dysplasia, as well as the need for early diagnosis and treatment. The use of the Frejka abduction pillow splint is advised when diagnosis can be made in the preweight bearing period; this method of therapy is almost always successful and easy to apply, in contrast to the discomfort of plaster casts and less favorable results obtained in older infants and children.

Purpose We aimed to revisit the correlation between the previously defined risk factors and the occurrence of developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) and to assess the influence of these factors on the ultrasonographic type of hip dysplasia according to the Graf’s classification in patients with DDH. Methods Data of healthy infants (mean age 33 days) who had bilateral mature (normal) hips (Graf type I) were compared with the data of infants (mean age 105 days) who were treated by abduction brace due to unilateral or bilateral DDH (Graf type IIa- and worse hips). Results Infants with at least one risk factor had a significantly higher rate of DDH than those with no risk factors (p < 0.001). Likewise, infants with more than one risk factor had a significantly higher rate of DDH than those with only one risk factor (p = 0.008). Family history, breech presentation and swaddling were found to be the three significant risk factors related to the development of DDH. Family history, swaddling and oligohydramnios were found to be the three significant risk factors correlated with a higher rate of unstable/decentred hip(s) (Graf types D/III/IV) in patients with DDH. Conclusion The risk of DDH significantly increases in infants who have more than one risk factor for DDH. Positive family history and postnatal traditional swaddling are the two main factors both in the aetiology of DDH and in development of a more severe hip dysplasia in patients with DDH. Besides, breech presentation increases the risk of development of DDH and oligohydramnios leads to development of a more severe hip dysplasia in patients with DDH. By introducing these four variables as ‘absolute risk factors for DDH’ to the selective newborn hip screening programmes, the sensitivity and specificity of these programmes may be optimized and the risk of delayed diagnosis may be lessened.
