Can Over-containment Prevent Recurrence in Children With Cerebral Palsy and Hip Dysplasia Undergoing Hip Reconstruction?
Conclusions:
Over-containment at the time of hip reconstruction can positively affect radiographic outcomes and failure rates in children with CP. Over-containment should be considered in hips at high risk of failure, especially non ambulatory children with significant hip subluxation at an early age.
Level of Evidence:
Level III—retrospective comparative study.
