title: Hip dislocation caused by infantile myofibromatosis.
abstract: An unusual case of newborn unilateral dislocated hip is presented. The condition was refractory to conservative treatment. The cause was found during surgery at the age of 1 month: the adductors were replaced by myofibromatosis. The tumor was excised and at follow-up a normal hip was noted.
