Open reduction and Pemberton periacetabular osteotomy (PPO) is one of the most preferred techniques for the treatment of developmental hip dyslaplasia (DDH) after the walking age. Performing the surgery as a one-stage operation or two separate consecutive operations is a controversial issue. In this study, we aimed to compare the outcomes, length of hospitalization and total cost between the patients whom had single-stage open reduction and PPO or two consecutive operations due to bilateral DDH in the walking age children. One hundred thirty patients with bilateral DDH had undergone open reduction and PPO for both hips. Seventy-five patients had one-stage open reduction and PPO for both of the hips, whereas 55 patients have two separate consecutive operations. Total time of exposure to anesthetics, blood loss and duration of operation were noted. Hospitalization period and total treatment costs were also noted for each patient. There was no statistically significant difference between the groups regarding the preoperative and postoperative AIs (P > 0.05). Comparing the total cost, length of hospitalization, exposure to anesthetics, perioperative blood loss, there was statistically significant difference between the groups (P < 0.005). Single-stage surgery had favorable outcomes. Major benefits of single-stage surgery for treatment of bilateral DDH are the reduced costs, anesthesia duration, intraoperative blood loss and hospitalization period. Also it can be presumed that prolonged immobilization can lead to loss of bone strength and resulting in fragility fractures. So single-stage open reduction and PPO for bilateral DDH can be preferred in experienced clinics.

Objective: In this study we aimed to evaluate the outcomes of anterior and combined approaches for treatment of acetabular fractures. Materials and Methods: Thirty-seven acetabular fractures in 35 patients treated with an anterior approach were evaluated retrospectively. Fractures were classified according to Judet-Letournel. Early and final radiological evaluation was based on Matta’s criteria. Modified Merle d'Aubigne and Postel criteria were used for functional assessment. Results: Eleven (30%) fractures were simple type and 26 (70%) were mixed type. Two (18%) of the simple fractures were transverse and 9(82%) were anterior column fractures. Fourteen (54%) of the mixed type fractures were both column fractures, 5 (19%) were transverse+posterior wall, 5 (19%) were T shaped and 2 (8%) were anterior column+posterior hemitransverse fractures. Surgical approach was ilioinguinal in 15 (43%) patients, Stoppa in 9 (26%) and combined11 (31%). Our functional outcomes were perfect in 10 (27%) hips, good in 20 (54%), moderate in 4 (10%) and poor in 3 (8%). Our radiological results were perfect in 15 (40.5%) hips, good in 15 (40.5%), moderate in 4 (11%) and poor in 3 (8%). Conclusion: Anterior surgical approaches provide satisfactory outcomes in appropriate fracture types. Posterior approach can be combined in certain fracture types. We think that rate of the requirement for a concomitant posterior approach for certain fractures of the acetabulum will decrease as experience increases.
Simultaneous versus staged surgeries for the treatment of bilateral developmental hip dysplasia in walking age: A comparison of complications and outcomes
(2021-01-01) Köse M.; Yılar S.; Topal M.; Tuncer K.; Aydın A.; Zencirli K.
Objectives: This study aims to compare the radiological outcomes and rate of complication between single-stage and staged operation for the treatment of bilateral developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). Patients and methods: A total of 100 patients (13 males, 87 females; mean age: 18.1±2.1 months; range, 12 to 36 months) with bilateral DDH who were older than 15 months of age and treated with open reduction (OR) or Pemberton pericapsular osteotomy (PPO) were retrospectively analyzed. Of the patients, 48 were operated with OR and 52 were operated with PPO. Improvements in acetabular indices, presence of avascular necrosis, radiological results, and other complications were noted. Results: There was no statistically significant difference in the preoperative acetabular indices, range of International Hip Dysplasia Institute (IHDI) classification, follow-up period, and age at the time of operation between the groups (p>0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the acetabular indices, rate of avascular necrosis, and radiological results at the end of 24 months of follow-up between the groups (p>0.05). Conclusion: Our study results show no significant difference in the radiological outcomes and complications between simultaneous and staged surgeries for the treatment of bilateral DDH in children in the walking age.
