Özet

Background: Although there have been numerous studies on the treatment of developmental dysplasia of the hip, few have focused on its natural history into adulthood. We observed valgus deformity of the knee in a group of adult patients with developmental dysplasia of the hip. To the best of our knowledge, there has been no detailed study of that condition. The purpose of this study was to investigate structural changes of the knee in patients with neglected developmental dysplasia of the hip.
