Hip in AMC

Contractures of the hip are present in almost 90% of AMC children. Hip dislocations are seen in 30% to 40% of AMC children. The purpose of this talk is to clarify some of the medical jargon that surrounds this complex joint. There is no “one way” to treat an AMC hip, so the aim of this talk is to bring a better understanding of what the surgeon is thinking when planning surgery.
