Asking for Other, Female, 8 years old, KSA Riyadh
My daughter is diagnosed with hip dysplasia at age of 8.8 years. Doctor is saying for surgery immediately but we got another opinion and that surgeon is saying that there is no success rate of surgery right now. You have to wait once she grow up n then we will go for hip replacement. While the other doctor is saying that surgery is must. We need an opinion on it. Xrays are attached

Most probably needs surgery to prevent risk of dislocation..
Surgery at present at 9yrs of age won't result good results. And re-dislocation may occur soon after surgery. Wait for maturity and then go for translational osteotony/replacement surgery.
need surgery as soon as possible
she needs surgery..
Salam, She needs to get MRI of hip joint to measure angles related to hip dysplasia and clinical exam as well before deciding surgery. Thanks
