Developmental hip dysplasia (hip dislocation)

Hello, Associate Professor Ali Fuat Karataş.

One of the patient groups that most frequently visits the pediatric clinic is the group known as developmental hip dysplasia, commonly referred to as hip dislocation.

This group includes disorders that occur in the hip from birth.

At our clinic, we successfully diagnose and treat developmental hip dysplasia.

Infants classified as high-risk are monitored with hip ultrasounds every 4-6 weeks.

For infants diagnosed with pathology, parvik bandage applications are performed in the first 6 months.

The parvik bandage is a widely accepted practice worldwide that yields excellent results in the early stages.

Infants wearing parvik bandages should have their hips examined at regular intervals, especially every 3 weeks, by specialists.

They should be monitored by pediatric orthopedists who have received training in this field.

Hip examinations performed by experienced professionals fully guide the treatment.

They determine the follow-up and outcome of the treatment.
