Why the study?

The study was conducted to review the value of acetabular MRI in children with developmental dysplasia of the hip across different age groups.

Does MRI scan accurately assess acetabular depth, bony acetabular index, and cartilaginous acetabular index in affected hips of children with developmental dysplasia of the hip compared to normal hips?

Overview

MRI aids acetabular parameter assessment in pediatric DDH across ages; leaves open impact on management or outcomes.

Structured PICO

Does MRI scan accurately assess acetabular depth, bony acetabular index, and cartilaginous acetabular index in affected hips of children with developmental dysplasia of the hip compared to normal hips?

P
Population
88 children with unilateral developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) diagnosed and treated between January 2010 and December 2015, divided into infants (<1 year, n=16), young children (1-3 years, n=48), and children (3-13 years, n=24).
I
Intervention
MRI scan of the affected hips (case group)
C
Comparator
MRI scan of the normal hips (control group)
O
Outcome
Acetabular depth (AD), bony acetabular index (BAI), and cartilaginous acetabular index (CAI)surrogate

MRI is a satisfactory imaging modality for assessing acetabular development and cartilage distribution in children with developmental dysplasia of the hip across different age groups.
