  • Title: Hip instability encountered in pediatric podiatry practice.
    Author: Harris EJ.
    Journal: Clin Podiatr Med Surg; 1997 Jan; 14(1):179-208. PubMed ID: 9030452.
    Abstract:
    Infants and children with pathologic conditions of the foot and leg frequently have predictable comorbidity. The treating physician has the responsibility for identifying these associated problems and promptly referring if the problem is outside of his or her area of expertise. Hip dysplasia and dislocation occur frequently enough in association with congenital foot and leg deformity that they must be actively sought out in all cases. This article presents an overview of the topic, a review of screening protocols and appropriate imaging techniques and case studies of children with hip instability encountered in pediatric podiatry practice.
