title: [Sequelae of septic arthritis of the hip in newborns].
abstract: The sequelae of arthritis of the hip in neonatal period have been analyzed in a series of 75 hips in 68 patients aged from 2 months to 14 years. The diagnosis was set on the basis of history, medical documentation, clinical and radiological examination with standard radiographs, arthrography and sonography included; sometimes as late as at surgery. In 15 joints with synovial type of septic arthritis pathological dislocation has been found. In 60 hips the inflammatory process involved proximal end of the femur. The sequelae strictly depended on localization of the pathology. On the basis of ossification disturbances, deformities and defects found within the head and neck on radiographs in 35 per cent of cases damaged epiphysis, physis and metaphysis were detected. In 23 per cent the neck was involved; in 42 per cent extensive damage to the head and neck was noted.
