title: Simultaneous open reduction and Salter innominate osteotomy for developmental dysplasia of the hip.
abstract: We have studied retrospectively 37 hips in 36 children at an average of 91 months after simultaneous open reduction and Salter innominate osteotomy for developmental hip dysplasia. At the latest review 97.3% were clinically and 83.8% radiologically good or excellent. In three hips (8%) there were signs of avascular necrosis, but only one had been symptomatic. There were no cases of recurrent posterior displacement.
