CDH
Etiology
Physiologic Factors
Ligament Laxity :
Hormonal :
( Estrogen, Relaxin) Females
Familial hyper laxity :
mild - moderate - Ehler Danlos
• Breech Presentation :
Normally 2 –4 %
CDH 16 %
The Breech position In Utero
Extended knees and flexed hips
CDH
Etiology
Environmental & Mechanical Factors
• Swaddling / strapping ( Mihad ):
Knees extended & Hips adducted
– Proven experimentally
– Proven statistically
• American Indians.
• Eskimos, and
• Saudi Arabia
– Mechanics
• Hip adduction and extension
CDH
Patients At Risk
• Positive Family History : increases risk 10X
• A baby girl : increases risk 4-6 times
• Breech Presentation : increases risk 5-10 X
• Torticollis : CDH in 10-20 % cases
• Foot Deformities :
( calcaneovalgus & metatarsus adductus)
signs of intrauterine crowding
• Knee Deformities :
( hyperextension & dislocation )
associated with Teratologic type
CDH
Risk Factors
•Lateralized contour
•Wide perineum
( in bilateral )
CDH
Neonatal Examination
anterior
posterior
LOOK :
• Asymmetric thigh
folds
CDH
Clinical Examination
• Look :
Shortening ( not in neonates )
- in supine
- Galeazzy sign
CDH
Neonatal Examination
FEEL :
• Empty groin
• Weak Femoral pulse
CDH
Neonatal Examination
MOVE :
• Hip instability
in early infancy
• Limited hip abduction
in flexion - later
(careful in bilateral)
if <600 on both sides:
request imaging
Cerebral palsy
Clinical Assessment
Hip Flexion Deformity
Thomas Test
SPECIAL :
• Loss of fixed flexion
FFD
deformity of hips Normal
( early infancy )
• Normally FFD

Hamstring Stretch Sign
• Flex hip and knee 900 each.
• Keep hip flexed and gradually extend the knee
• Normally a resistance is felt towards the end of
knee extension
(caused by the hamstrings which are pulled from both
ends)
• In cases of CDH, no resistance is felt
(when the hip is dislocated, the origin of the hamstrings are
not pulled by hip flexion)

Treatment
Aims
• Obtain and Maintain concentric reduction
• In an Atruamatic fashion
• Without disrupting the blood supply
CDH
Treatment
• Method depends on Age
• Open reduction
? and acetabulplasty
? And femoral shortening – if high
CDH
Treatment
Above 3 years
• Open reduction
• And acetabulplasty
Summary
• Complex multi-factorial, endemic– treatable.
• Dr’s awareness and health education.
• Screening programs are needed.
• Learning proper examination methods.
• Identify at-risk groups.
– repeat examination & imaging.
• Efficient referral system.
• Proper management in referral centers.
