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.

Examination and treatment of 524 children with coxalgia has been performed. Algorithm for early diagnosis of various hip joint diseases accompanied by coxalgia has been elaborated. The factors causing hip joint response resulting in different pathology including Leg-Calve-Perthes disease have been determined. In the majority of cases application of modified splint in combination with drug therapy enabled to normalize blood circulation in the affected joint and prevent the development of secondary deformities of the femoral head.

2/3 of all diseases of the nervous system in children begin to develop in the perinatal period. In recent decades, great strides have been made in perinatal neurology in the development of criteria for early diagnosis and treatment of diseases. Further study of the biochemical foundations of perinatal lesions of the nervous system with the definition of objective markers of the severity of the lesion will reveal new links in its pathogenesis and develop more effective methods of treatment.

Abnormalities of the hip joint in children covers a wide range of diseases, including both congenital and acquired ones. Hip dysplasia, Legg-Calve-Perthes disease and juvenile slipped capital femoral epiphysis account for up to 25 % of all diseases of the musculoskeletal system in pediatric patients. Early diagnosis of these disorders and timely treatment are of paramount importance in the prevention of childhood disability.

Dislocation Of The Hip

Developmental dislocation of the hip is an important orthopedic condition whose early diagnosis and treatment greatly improves the life of a patient with the condition. Despite a worldwide focus on early diagnosis and treatment, many children and adolescents present with residual hip dysplasia. This group includes those that have not had prior diagnosis or treatment and often present in adolescence, as well as those who have been treated nonoperatively and yet continue to have residual dysplasia. Decisions determining when hip dysplasia should be surgically corrected have traditionally been dependent upon two-dimensional images (plain radiographs) to analyze the nature and degree of residual deformity. To better understand residual hip dysplasia in children, we have utilized three-dimensional computerized tomographic (3-D CT) methods to evaluate the pathoanatomy of hip dysplasia in children. Careful analysis of these images has allowed us to more fully understand the nature of residual hip dysplasia and to better plan corrective hip osteotomies designed to improve the longevity and function of the hip joint.
