EARLY DIAGNOSIS OF CONGENITAL DYSPLASIA OF THE HIP; NEW ROENTGENOLOGIC SIGNS

CLAUDIO GARAVAGLIA M.D.

In studying a population strongly affected by congenital dysplasia of the hip and examining almost all the children of about 6 months of age born in this area, we observed a noteworthy number of borderline and initial cases of dysplasia.

Our findings lead us to the conclusion that initial roentgenologic signs of dysplasia begin at the upper end of the acetabular roof. These signs represent dysmorphic changes, such as sclerosis, a shallow groove, or a fossa.

Moreover, we would like to call attention to the importance of the nonosseous images for the study of the position and shape of the cartilaginous head of the femur and the pathologic changes of the fibrocartilaginous limbus.
