A Novel Method to Study Hip Growth and Development in Children with Cerebral Palsy
This novel assessment method demonstrates that ossification of the lateral acetabulum and femoral head in children with CP GMFCS IV/V from age 8 to 12 years undergoes a mean decrease of 10% MP. A decrease of 10% MP after proximal femoral-guided growth has been reported as a positive outcome. However, based on the current measurements, this may be due to normal development. HSA and NSA remained unchanged.
