[Results of the treatment of congenital dislocation of the hip by "extentions repositioning" and "Hanausekretention" (author's transl)].
Since 1969 all our patients below the age of three years, suffering from congenital luxation of the hip-joint, were treated conservatively. The "Extensions-reposition" and "Hanausekretention" were just slightly modified in providing the "Lorenzposition" by reducing the abduction. The rate of necrosis of the femoral head (4.3%) did not change significantly. In only one case we did not succeed in repositioning a completely luxated hipjoint conservatively. Children up to the age of 3 years can be treated conservatively by this method.
