Ultrasonography in New Born Hip.

One-hundred hips of the newborns, male 58 and female 42, were examined clinically be static and dynamic ultrasound examination for congenital dysplasia of the hip. The following finding were found Graf’s type I mature hip = 24%, Graf’s type IIA physiologic immature hip = 76%, average  angle = 55.1o and average  angle = 51.0o. Both clinical and dynamic examination revealed normal findings. From the result of this study, we would recommend the ultrasound examination as the primary imaging technique when congenital hip dysplasia or instability is suspected.
