title: Dysplasia epiphysealis hemimelica (Trevor's disease) of the acetabulum.
abstract: Unphysiological joint stress leads to problems and subsequently to joint destruction. We report a rare case of dysplasia epiphysialis hemimelica (DEH) of the triradiate cartilage of the acetabulum. In addition to clinical symptoms, we point out the specific therapy and outcome of the afflicted child.
