Late acetabular dysplasia after successful treatment for developmental dysplasia of the hip using the Pavlik method: A systematic literature review.
Journal of Orthopaedics 2019 January
The Pavlik method is the most common method used for treatment of developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). Late acetabular dysplasia despite successful treatment, however, has had varied reporting. A systematic review was performed, investigating the long-term outcomes of DDH treated with the Pavlik method. Seventeen studies met inclusionary criteria, including 6029 hips treated with an average of 5.29 years follow-up. Radiographic evidence of late dysplasia was present in 280 hips, with 109 hips requiring additional surgery. A specified treatment algorithm had significantly decreased rates of radiographic dysplasia (3.8% vs 17.6%, p = 0.004).
