Abstract
1. The literature of dislocation of the hip in childhood from 1922 to 1954 is reviewed. A total of eighty-eight cases have been recorded. 2. A further case, in a child of one year and eleven months, is described. 3. Nine of the children whose cases have been recorded developed Perthes' disease of the hip after the dislocation, an incidence of 10 per cent. A similar incidence of avascular necrosis of the femoral head has been reported after dislocation of the hip in adults.
