Abstract

Introduction: Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip (DDH) is a developmental disorder characterized by instability, subluxation, or dislocation of the femoral head from the acetabulum. Early diagnosis is essential to ensure normal hip development and prevent long-term complications. Aim To evaluate treatment outcomes and management strategies in patients with DDH. Methods A literature review was conducted using electronic databases including PubMed and Google Scholar. Review articles, clinical studies, and orthopedic guidelines on conservative and surgical treatment of DDH were analyzed. Results Both conservative and surgical treatments demonstrated satisfactory outcomes when appropriately indicated. Early intervention was associated with improved hip stability, better radiological outcomes, and lower complication rates. Delayed treatment increased the risk of residual dysplasia and avascular necrosis. Conclusion Early diagnosis and timely treatment are essential for successful DDH management. Appropriate intervention improves hip stability and functional outcomes while reducing long-term complications.
