Purpose

Ultrasound of the neonatal and infantile hip is a useful tool in diagnosis and treatment of the developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH), especially given the fact that numerous cases of DDH do not present any findings in the clinical examination.

Methods

Between January 2014 and May 2020, 10536 (5273 neonates and infants, 53% girls, 47% boys) consecutive neonatal and infantile hip joints were studied using the Graf Hip Ultrasound method.
