Who needs pediatric hip reconstruction?

Children with developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH), Perthes disease, cerebral palsy with hip subluxation or dislocation, post-traumatic hip deformities, or other congenital hip abnormalities are ideal candidates.
This procedure is recommended when conservative treatments have failed and the hip joint shows progressive deterioration, pain, limited mobility, or instability that affects the child's quality of life and long-term function.

Procedure

How pediatric hip reconstruction works.

A step-by-step look at what happens during this procedure.

1

Surgical Incision

A carefully planned incision is made over the hip joint to access the affected bone and joint structures while preserving surrounding soft tissues and growth plates.

2

Joint Assessment

The hip joint is thoroughly examined to evaluate the extent of deformity, cartilage damage, and bone alignment issues that require correction.

3

Bone Reshaping

Osteotomies are performed on the femur and/or pelvis to reposition bones into proper alignment, cutting and reshaping bone segments as needed for optimal joint congruency.

4

Joint Realignment

The femoral head is repositioned within the acetabulum to create stable, anatomically correct joint alignment that promotes normal hip development and function.

5

Fixation and Closure

Surgical hardware including plates, screws, or pins are used to secure bone segments in their corrected positions, followed by layered closure of soft tissues and skin.

Our Approach

How we handle this procedure.

A structured, patient-first approach from first consultation to full recovery.

Step 01

Comprehensive Evaluation

Dr. Roshan Kumar Jaiswal conducts detailed clinical examination and reviews advanced imaging including X-rays, CT scans, and MRI to create a personalized surgical plan tailored to each child's unique anatomy and condition.

Step 02

Precision Surgical Technique

Using advanced pediatric orthopedic techniques, Dr. Jaiswal performs precise bone cuts and realignment procedures while protecting growth plates and neurovascular structures to ensure optimal outcomes and minimize complications.

Step 03

Post-Operative Monitoring

Immediate postoperative care includes pain management, wound monitoring, and early mobilization protocols designed specifically for pediatric patients to promote healing while preventing complications.

Step 04

Rehabilitation Partnership

Dr. Jaiswal collaborates with specialized pediatric physical therapists to guide progressive weight-bearing, range-of-motion exercises, and strength training throughout the recovery process for complete functional restoration.

What to expect at each stage of your recovery journey.

Immediate Post-Operative PhaseProtected Healing PhaseProgressive Rehabilitation Phase

Immediate Post-Operative Phase

The first 1-2 weeks involve hospitalization and initial recovery with strict bed rest, pain management, and careful monitoring of the surgical site. A spica cast or specialized brace is applied to immobilize the hip and protect the reconstruction.

Protected Healing Phase

Weeks 2-12 focus on bone healing with continued immobilization in a cast or brace. Regular follow-up appointments include X-rays to monitor bone union and alignment. Gentle exercises for non-affected joints help maintain overall strength.

Progressive Rehabilitation Phase

Months 3-6 involve gradual weight-bearing progression, intensive physical therapy to restore hip mobility and strength, and transition from assistive devices to independent walking. Regular imaging confirms successful bone healing and proper joint alignment before full activity resumption.

Outcomes

Success & outcomes.

Improved Hip Stability

Successful reconstruction establishes proper ball-and-socket alignment, creating stable hip joint mechanics that prevent dislocation and support normal developmental growth patterns.

Pain Reduction

Correcting structural abnormalities and joint incongruency significantly reduces or eliminates chronic hip pain, improving comfort during daily activities and sleep.

Enhanced Mobility

Restored anatomical alignment enables improved range of motion, better gait patterns, and increased functional capacity for age-appropriate physical activities.

Prevention of Arthritis

Early surgical intervention prevents abnormal wear patterns and joint deterioration that would lead to premature osteoarthritis, preserving long-term hip health into adulthood.

Myths vs Facts

Common misconceptions.

Let's clear up some of the most common myths about pediatric hip reconstruction.

What happens if pediatric hip reconstruction is delayed?

  • Untreated hip abnormalities in children progressively worsen, leading to chronic pain, severe mobility limitations, and permanent joint damage. The hip joint will continue to develop abnormally, causing leg length discrepancies, gait abnormalities, and compensatory spinal deformities. By adulthood, untreated pediatric hip conditions typically result in debilitating early-onset arthritis requiring total hip replacement at a young age, significantly impacting quality of life and functional independence.
