title: The conservative management of congenital dislocation of the hip after walking age.
abstract: Congenital dislocation of the hip (CDH) is a developmental disorder with a wide spectrum of clinical manifestations. Recent advances in imaging techniques have improved clinicians' understanding and early detection of CDH. Despite recent advances, some children remain undiagnosed until after they reach walking age.
