Abstract
Thirty-two neglected congenital dislocations of the hip in twenty-two children over the age of six years were treated by traction, open reduction and Chiari osteotomy. In five hips, where prolonged traction failed to bring the femoral heads into the vicinity of the acetabulum, a shortening subtrochanteric osteotomy of the femur was performed. The overall results were good and this regime of treatment is recommended.
