Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip (DDH) occurs 1 in 1,000 babies and progressive subluxation occurs in up to 50% of children with cerebral palsy (CP). Our patient was prematurely with suspected CP and dislocated hip. Initial conservative treatment and open reduction was expected to contain the dislocated head of femur in the acetabulum but did not. At the age of 4 years the hip started to subluxate and the second surgery only corrected half of the problem. At this time surgery to increase the depth of the acetabulum should have been done. As she grew up problem of the hip did not leave her and after 15 surgeries landed with arthritis for total hip replacement.

Abstract Sports medicine surgeons sometimes encounter morbidly obese athletes with femoroacetabular impingement, such as Sumo wrestlers. In such cases, traditional arthroscopic equipment will not reach the joint. This case report describes the use of a cystoscope to perform arthroscopy to treat borderline developmental dysplasia of the hip combined with cam impingement in a morbidly obese athlete. The cystoscope enables hip arthroscopy to be performed when traditional instruments are not of sufficient length to access the hip and/or an extra-long arthroscope is not available. The use of the cystoscope provides a practical, feasible and minimally invasive option to treat non-arthritic intraarticular hip pathology in the morbidly obese or extremely muscular athletes.
