title: A new surgical approach in 8 cases of polygonal triple pelvic osteotomy.
abstract: We have undertaken 12 polygonal osteotomies, using an improved approach in 8. The operation was successful in correction of acetabular dysplasia after ossification of the triradiate cartilage. It was also useful in early arthrosis with slight deformity of the femoral head.
