Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Pediatric Orthopedics
  • Surgical Techniques

Background:

  • Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) in children often requires surgical intervention, with innominate osteotomy being a common procedure.
  • Traditional innominate osteotomy involves extensive exposure and the use of a Gigli saw, followed by hip spica cast immobilization.
  • These traditional methods can lead to prolonged anesthesia time, difficult application, and increased patient morbidity.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe and evaluate a less invasive innominate osteotomy technique utilizing an oscillating saw.
  • To assess the safety, efficacy, and patient outcomes of this modified surgical approach.
  • To compare the benefits of using an abduction brace for postoperative immobilization.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective review of 50 innominate osteotomies performed in 49 pediatric patients with DDH.
  • Surgical technique involved using an oscillating saw for the osteotomy cut, allowing for minimal surgical exposure.
  • Postoperative immobilization was achieved using an abduction brace.

Main Results:

  • The modified technique resulted in significantly improved acetabular index (35.1° pre-op to 14.9° post-op, P<0.0001).
  • Average surgery duration was 25 minutes with minimal blood loss (<50 ml), and patients were discharged by the second postoperative day.
  • No intraoperative complications or loss of correction were observed; two patients had minor superficial wound infections.

Conclusions:

  • The oscillating saw is a safe and effective instrument for innominate osteotomy, enabling less invasive surgery.
  • This technique leads to reduced morbidity, shorter operation times, and quicker patient recovery without compromising surgical outcomes.
  • Postoperative immobilization with an abduction brace is a viable alternative to hip spica casts, maintaining surgical correction.
