Аннотация

The incidence of subluxation or dislocation of the hip in 185 cerebral palsied patients was 25.4\%. Posterior iliopsoas transfer will decrease hip deformities but complications such as weakness of hip flexion or abduction contracture are to be expected in some cases. Posterior iliopsoas transfer did not give uniformly satisfactory results; 9 out of 17 patients were fair to poor even combined with innominate osteotomy and/or versus derotation osteotomy of the femur. Early prophylactic surgery of lesser extent such as adductor release is desirable since treatment of established subluxation or dislocation is often unsatisfactory.
