Abstract:
Derotation osteotomy is indicated after reduction and stabilization of a dislocation, if there is still an augmented anteversion with a risk of reluxation: osteotomy is also indicated for prevention of leg deformities. Varization and derotation-varization osteotomies are occasionally indicated for secondary reconstruction of a more or less normal hip with severe residual dysplasia.
