Developmental Dysplasia of Hip (DDH) – Ayurvedic Treatment, Diet, Exercises, Research Papers, Yoga & Pranayama

Introduzione

Developmental Dysplasia of Hip (DDH) is a congenital anomaly in which the hip joint develops defective. The baby may present with abnormal twisting or movements of the hip joint. The parents might notice a slight difference in the length of baby’s both legs that become evident once the child starts walking. Though it is an anomaly by birth, very early diagnosis and proper management can help correct the condition almost completely. Most cases of DDH are identifies in infancy or early childhood with difficulty in walking or an abnormal gait.

Signs and symptoms of DDH

• Hip joint that is stiff
• Lower limbs with different length
• While in standing position, the patient leans to the side affected
• The affected side foot tends to tilt towards the outside
• Thick and uneven folds of skin in groin or upper part of thigh

 

Causes of DDH

Exact cause of DDH is not known yet but some risk factors are found with increased risk, as follows:

• First born child as they are more tightly packed inside the uterus
• Breech presentation in the last phase of pregnancy
• Family history with similar condition
• Female children are affected more than male ones

 

Pathophysiology of DDH

DDH starts with genetic alterations and is mostly established from birth or early infancy. DDH is a wide spectrum of disorders associated with an abnormality of development of acetabulum and proximal femur, resulting in mechanical instability of the hip joint. It can develop with or without the dislocation of the hip joint.

Diagnosis of DDH

• Physical examination-the Ortolani test and Barlow manoeuvre
• Proper history taking with special reference to the family history
• Ultrasound scan

Treatments for DDH

A very early diagnosis of DDH can be managed by a fabric splint named as Pavlik harness, that keeps the hip of the baby with stability, enabling normal development to an extent.

Other treatment options include braces, hip spica (plaster cast), rehabilitation procedures and surgery. Surgical corrections to the ligaments in and around the hip help in DDH. In children below two years, a non-surgical procedure known as closed reduction is found beneficial. Though non-surgical, this procedure is done under anaesthesia.

 

Prognosis of DDH

The result of the treatment depends upon the time of diagnosis and intervention. If diagnosed and treated in the early infancy, most children get cured almost completely. But if not properly managed, DDH can lead to many complications including osteoarthritis.

Complications of DDH

• Difference in length of the limbs
• Painless limp
• Osteoartrite
• Hip labral tear
