How to treat hip dislocation in infants

Congenital hip dislocation is a common congenital deformity, treatment methods mainly include the following aspects: 1. Conservative treatment: Conservative treatment is usually used for younger infants with less severe dislocation. Treatment methods include hip frog cast fixation, brace fixation, etc. to maintain the normal position of the hip joint. Conservative treatment requires regular X-ray review to evaluate the effect of treatment. 2. Surgical treatment: If conservative treatment is not effective, or if the degree of dislocation is severe, surgery may be required. The purpose of surgery is to release the soft tissue around the hip joint, correct the morphological abnormalities of the acetabulum and femoral head, and increase the stability of the hip joint. Surgical methods include pelvic osteotomy, proximal femoral osteotomy, etc. 3. Postoperative rehabilitation: After surgery, the baby needs a period of rehabilitation therapy, including physical therapy, functional exercise, etc., to promote the recovery and functional recovery of the hip joint. It should be noted that the treatment of congenital hip dislocation needs to be individualized according to the specific conditions of the baby. During the treatment process, parents need to closely cooperate with the doctor's treatment and regularly take the baby for review to ensure the treatment effect. In addition, for some special groups, such as the existence of hip dysplasia family history, breech delivery, low birth weight infants, etc., need to pay closer attention to the development of hip joint, timely screening and diagnosis. In short, the treatment of congenital hip dislocation needs to comprehensively consider the infant's age, dislocation degree, physical condition and other factors, to develop personalized treatment plan. Parents need to closely cooperate with doctors' treatment and regularly take their babies for follow-up to ensure the effectiveness of treatment.
