Minimally-Invasive Dega Osteotomy in Ambulatory Pediatric Patients With Residual Developmental Dysplasia of the Hips—A Technique and Prospective Case Series
The minimally invasive Dega osteotomy technique is a safe and effective method for treating residual acetabular dysplasia in ambulatory patients. It offers advantages of minimal invasiveness, reduced surgical time, and less blood loss, with outcomes comparable to standard methods. However, further studies with larger cohorts and longer follow-up are necessary to fully establish its efficacy and safety profile.
