Population-based study of the incidence of congenital hip dysplasia in preterm infants from the Survey of Neonates in Pomerania (SNiP)

Abstract: BackgroundSome etiological factors involved in developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) occur in the last trimester of pregnancy, which could result in a decreased incidence of DDH in preterm infants. The aim of this study was to compare the incidence of DDH between preterm and term infants.MethodsUltrasound of the hip joint was performed in 2,534 term infants and 376 preterm infants within the population-based Survey of Neonates in Pomerania (SNiP) study.ResultsA total of 42 (1.66%) term infants had DDH (Graf… Show more

“…[3] This complex developmental disorder is the result of genetic and nongenetic risk factors. [6,1617] The latter factors include the female gender of the child. [2528] Regarding ultrasound examination of the right hips, in the present study we obtained for stage IA a higher frequency with statistical significance for males (90.2%), comparing with females (84.6%), with a P value of .03.…”

“…[15] DDH is an important cause of disability in both children and adults if is not treated in time. [69] Anatomical abnormalities of the dysplastic hip can lead to biomechanical changes of the dysplastic hip joint, the shortening of the length of the inferior limb on the affected side, pain, and joint dysfunction. The correct and early diagnosis of this pathology has become a major objective in pediatrics, currently relying on medical history, clinical and imaging examinations—radiological or ultrasound examination.…”

“…Congenital hip dislocation was found to be a common defect (65 per 10,000 births), and also showed a considerable increasing trend (18.5% increase per year). Prevalences of congenital hip dislocation vary by country from 1.5 to 4.9% [ 50 ]. Its causes have been suggested to be breech presentation, oligohydramnios, skeletal malformations due to teratogenic agents, and neuromuscular disease [ 51 ].…”

“…Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is a congenital, developmental deformation, or misalignment of the hip joint, which is affected by genetic, environmental, and mechanical factors. The definition encompasses a broad range of presentations, from mild acetabular dysplasia, deficient coverage of the femoral head; that the incidence of DDH in newborns ranges from 1 to 7% across several distinct populations results from differing genetic predisposition and cultural practices (1)(2)(3)(4). Developmental dysplasia of the hip is one of the most common limb deformities in children and a frequent cause of secondary osteoarthritis.…”
