title: [Effect of adductor tenotomy on the hip joint in spastic paralysis].
abstract: Author examined the effect of adductor tenotomies in spastic patients. The changes of passive abduction, of the shaft-neck angle, of Wiberg's angle and of the decentric distance are evaluated following the operation. It was found that the change of the supplementary development of the acetabulum decreases with the time. With this operation the scissoring gait and the subluxation of the hip can be eliminated.
