[Predicting the development of degenerative and dystrophic lesions of the hip joint of dysplastic etiology].

On the basis of the roentgenologic changes in 368 patients in 184 children with hip joint dysplasia and developing degenerative and dystrophic lesions in it the authors have proposed a prognostic table of roentgenologic values of the hip joint in various age groups of the patients who may develop degenerative and dystrophic lesions. Prognosis of the development of a degenerative and dystrophic lesion of the hip joint allows to considerably reduce the quantity of its appearance and progress.
