    Abstract:
    The history of open reduction for congenital dislocation of the hips is reviewed. There are currently five procedures used for open reduction of the hip. Each of these procedures is reviewed as to rationale, anatomic approach, and advantages. An attempt is made to review the literature concerning the complications and results associated with these various procedures. The author concludes by attempting to formulate the indications for each of the five procedures.
