Background and Purpose.
The Salter innominate osteotomy has been an effective method to treat the developmental dysplasia of hip (DDH) over the past decades; however, several postoperative complications and deficiencies were reported.
In this study, we evaluated outcome of a newly modified Salter osteotomy in patients presenting with DDH.
Methods.
We reviewed retrospectively 76 patients (90 hips) with DDH aged ≥ 18 months, who underwent open reduction and a modified osteotomy by a single surgeon.
The distal osteotomy segment of pelvis was shifted anterolaterally in the amount of osteotomy cross-section, but not downwards.
The mean age at surgery was 2 years and 11 months (1.5 to 16 years).
Femoral shortening was conducted when necessary.
The duration of operation varied between 60 and 90 minutes.
The mean follow-up was 4 years and one month (range 15 months to 7 years and 9 months).
All patients were followed up both clinically (based on the modified MacKay criteria) and radiologically (based on the modified Severin criteria).
Results.
Clinically, 94.5% of hips had excellent and good results at final follow-up, and only 5.5% had a fair condition.
Radiographically, at the final follow-up 77.8% of hips were grade IA (excellent), 12.2% were grade IB, 6.7% were grade II, and 3.3% were grade III (fair).
The preoperative mean acetabular index was 47.85° (41° to 59), which decreased to 17.16° (13° to 22°) immediately after the surgery (p<0.0001) and progressed to 11.24° (7° to 19°) at the final follow-up (p<0.0001).
The mean initial postoperative center-edge angle was 30.3° (25° to 42°) significantly improved to 39.1 (31° to 56°) at the final follow-up (p<0.0001).
Avascular necrosis of femoral head occurred in 4.4% of hips (4 patients).
Conclusion.
The results show that our modified Salter osteotomy is safe and associated with significant benefit for the management of patients suffering from DDH.
