title: [Traumatic hip dislocation in childhood].
abstract: Twelve children with hip dislocation were recorded from 18 hospitals of the GDR in a collective study conducted on behalf of the Working Group on Paediatric Traumatology. The closed approach was exclusively taken to all reductions, and all of them were performed within the twelve-hour limit. Avascular necrosis of the femoral head or other growth disorders were not observed. Relief periods were conspicuously differentiated, which gave rise to the proposal of unitisation of the therapeutic approach.
