PFGD changes were significantly higher in Group 2 (<i>p</i> <i>=</i> 0.028) and in re-dislocated hips (<i>p</i> <i>=</i> 0.004). Satisfactory outcomes were found in 89% of non-re-dislocated hips and 75% of re-dislocated hips.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>At an average follow-up of 5 years, children above and below 3 years at index procedure for DDH show similar outcomes but older ones need femoral osteotomy more frequently. Osteonecrosis risk rises with increasing age at index surgery and after re-operations, but its impact is not clear in mid-term.</p>","PeriodicalId":12911,"journal":{"name":"HIP International","volume":" ","pages":"11207000241303687"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2024-12-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142812922","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
