  • Title: Ossification of femoral head in infancy. II. Ossification in infants treated for congenital dislocation.
    Author: Pettersson H, Theander G.
    Journal: Acta Radiol Diagn (Stockh); 1979; 20(1):180-92. PubMed ID: 110033.
    Abstract:
    A review of the films obtained in 124 infants conservatively treated for congenital dislocation of the hip revealed deviations from ordinary development of the femoral head before as well as after the treatment. Analysis of these deviations suggested initial acceleration of ossification, modified by retardation ipsilateral to dislocation and followed by bilateral deceleration of growth after treatment.
