title: [Profile of radiologic-orthopedic requirements in pediatric hip dysplasia, coxitis and epiphyseolysis capitis femoris].
abstract: DDH, septic coxarthritis and slipped capital epiphysis should be diagnosed as soon as possible. Hip sonography is the goal of DDH examination technique, anatomical identification and 3 landmarks check up are there most important points of the method. With the progress of ossification and loss of the 3 landmarks consecutively, x-rays become increasingly important. Septic coxarthritis is an orthopaedic emergency case, sonography is the most important tool in primary diagnosis. Slipped capital epiphysis requires an x-ray in 2 planes, MRI oder CT scans respectively makes sense in special cases to localize the area of necrosis and to plan further reconstructive procedures.
