Changes in internal architectonics of proximal femur in children with hip dysplasia development

The aim of the research is to identify common patterns of compensatory changes in internal architectonics of the proximal femur with valgus and varus deformity. Material and Methods. The parameters of the proximal femur were determined on the basis of 78 roentgenograms of children with hip dysplasia (1-4 years, 4-7 years, 7-16 years) before and after surgical treatment (after 6 months). Results. The degree of change in internal architectonics of the bone substance has been determined after changing of the femoral neck-shaft angle achieved with the help of correcting osteotomy in different age groups. Conclusion. Maximum recovery of internal architectonics of the bone substance is observed in the groups aged 4-7 years.
