Abstract:Background/aim
Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is the most common cause of secondary hip arthrosis. The primary purpose of this study was to assess the results of an oversized hemispherical cup via the press-fit technique used for Crowe type II and III DDH without screws and to determine if adequate medialization and initial stability of the acetabular component would allow us to avoid screw and graft use.
