The pubo-femoral distance decreases with Pavlik harness treatment for developmental dysplasia of the hip in newborns.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the evolution of the ultrasonographic pubo-femoral distance (PFD) before and after Pavlik harness treatment for developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) in newborns. PATIENTS AND METHODS:Twenty-five patients (16.7 ± 10.4 days; 19 females, six males) diagnosed with DDH and treated using the Pavlik harness were included. Eighteen patients had bilateral, and seven unilateral DDH, with a total of 43 dysplastic hips. The seven non-dysplastic hips in unilateral cases were used for comparison. The PFD was measured in the coronal and axial planes with the hip flexed to approximately 90°, before and after an average of 93 days of treatment. The femoral head coverage was assessed in the coronal plane, and correlated with PFD values. RESULTS:In dysplastic hips, the mean PFD decreased from 6.1 ± 1.8 mm to 3.0 ± 0.7 mm in the axial (adjusted difference, 2.9 mm; p < 0.01), and from 5.9 ± 2.0 to 3.0 ± 0.6 mm in the coronal plane (adjusted difference 2.7 mm; p < 0.01). The femoral head coverage increased from 30.8 to 62.1%, and the mean differences of femoral head coverage and PFD were significantly correlated (p < 0.001). There was no difference between treated dysplastic and non-dysplastic hips. There was high intra- and inter-observer agreement for PFD measurements. CONCLUSION:The PFD decreased significantly after DDH treatment using the Pavlik harness in newborns, and showed significant correlation with the femoral head coverage improvement. PFD might be a reliable tool for monitoring DDH treatment in newborns treated using the Pavlik harness.
