[The Salter innominate osteotomy as the treatment of congenital dislocation and subluxation (author's transl)].
The Salter innominate osteotomy is useful in the treatment of congenital dislocation and subluxation of the hip after the age of 18 months. The procedure provides stable reduction of the femur even with weight bearing. In addition, the acetabulum depth is not diminished and the head is covered with hyaline cartilage. Derotation-varization intertrochanteric osteotomy improves hip biomechanics and when done in combination with the innominate osteotomy, the wedge of bone from the femur may be used in the ilium, precluding the necessity for a separate iliac graft. Combined Salter innominate osteotomy, intertrochanteric femoral osteotomy and open reduction as a single operation has produced satisfactory results and has distinct advantages over staged procedures.
