title: [Chiari's pelvic osteotomy in adults. 35 cases (author's transl)].
abstract: Between 1968 and 1978 the authors have performed 35 Chiari's pelvic osteotomies in adults ; 25 cases reviewed after a more than one year follow-up. The operation is a relatively major one, and complications are not uncommon. Carried out in adults for sequelae of hip dislocation in childhood, with or without arthrosis, it relieves pain remarkably well and improves walking distances but has little effect on hip mobility. Pelvic osteotomy may also give satisfactory results in some advanced forms of arthrosis, provided hip mobility remains sufficient (70 degrees flexion or more).
