title: [Importance of use of ultrasound in the early diagnosis and treatment of hip joint developmental disorders].
abstract: Developmental dysplasia of the hip has been a problem for over a thousand years. Clinical signs are insufficient for an exact diagnosis, X-ray diagnosis is reliable only at the age of six months and later. Advantages of ultrasound diagnosis (used immediately after birth), classification of findings and basic treatment are described.
