title: [Experimental research of the influences on the development of the hip joints with excavated acetabula].
abstract: There are still arguments about the operation excavated acetabula treatments for the congenital dislocation of the hip. To inquire into the influences on the development of the hip joints with excavated acetabula size, we divided 60 two-month-old chickens into three groups which were given incised dislocation and then reduction partly excavated the cartilages of the acetabula and excavated them totally to the left hips respectively. Contrasting observation of all the experimental chickens was taken on the right ones of their own. The second group achieved a fair function of the joint movement. Limited and slight adhesion was not affecting the development of the joints seriously. The third group had, on the contrary, poor functions because of the comprehensive adhesion in the acetabula. The surfaces of the acetabula were replaced by fabric tissue. The remaining or regenerating cartilage cells vary obviously under the light scope and the electronic scope. The heads of the femurs had changed similarly. It is suggested that in dealing with the congenital dislocation of the hip, excavating the acetabola cartilage is not advisable. Partly excavating is permitted when a limited bony process existing in the bottom of the acetabula.
