Comparing three surgical procedures for hip dislocation in children with cerebral palsy

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This clinical trial evaluates the effectiveness of three different surgical procedures for managing late-presenting hip dislocation in non-ambulatory children with cerebral palsy, specifically those classified as GMFCS levels IV and V. The study focuses on reconstructive and salvage surgeries, including hip reconstruction surgery, proximal femoral resection, and proximal femoral valgus osteotomy. By assessing outcomes such as pain relief and hip joint congruity, the trial aims to provide evidence-based recommendations for treating this challenging condition. The study utilizes the revised Melbourne Cerebral Palsy Hip Classification system to evaluate hip deformities and treatment effectiveness.
