[Congenital hip dislocation. The clinico-echographic correlations].
The authors report their experience with US of the hip in 200 children aged 9 days to 8 months. All the children previously were under-gone physical examination. The sonographic study was carried out with Graf's method. The clinical-sonographic correlation proves the utility of US as a screening method able to show early morphological and functional alterations in the hip. US is thus suggested as a valid alternative to conventional methods to use in those cases where either plastering or surgery is required.
