Abstract

The subluxated/dislocated hip in the spastic patient is a challenging problem, i.e., reconstruction vs. resection. If resection is chosen, the goals are to improve motion and mobility and relieve pain without prolonged hospitalization or complicated post-op care. We believe a new technique, described as trochanteric sparing proximal femoral resection, developed by Schoenecker et.al accomplishes these goals of surgery while avoiding the complications of previously described procedures.
