The Redislocation after Open Reduction and Salter's Innominate Osteotomy in Congenital Dislocation of the Hip / 대한정형외과학회잡지

ABSTRACT

The complications of Salter's innominate osteotomy in the treatment of congenital dislocation of the hip were avascular necrosis of the femoral head, hematoma, rotation of distal pelvic fragment, infection, fracture of femoral shaft and redislocation. Among them the causes of redislocation were technical failure, immobilization failure and absorption the bone graft, etc. We experienced a case of redislocation after open reduction and Salter s innominate osteotomy in congenital dislocation of the hip which was induced by a foreign body reaction to the suture material.
