متن کاملScreening for developmental dysplasia of the hip.
The reported prevalence of established dislocation the hip in an unscreened population varies from 0.7 to 1.6 / 1000 children in European and American white populations. In clinically screened populations neonatal hip instability is reported to occur in 3 to 30 / 1000 newborns while established congenital dislocation has a prevalence of 0.1- 4/1000 of which 1/1000 is judged to be in need for su...
