Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is a relatively common malady that has profound consequences in the infant if left untreated. Effective and early treatment of DDH has been praised as one of the most successful ventures of modern pediatric orthopedics. Yet, before the modern management of DDH came into existence, there were extensive technological developments in the field of harnesses, casts, and traction methods. This paper aims to identify the centuries-old history of advancement in DDH treatment and the many important people involved. Their devices, thoughts, and ideas continue to have a profound impact on the current practice of orthopedic surgery.
发育性髋关节发育不良（DDH）是一种相对常见的病症，如果不治疗，会对婴儿产生深远影响。DDH的有效早期治疗被誉为现代小儿骨科最成功的成果之一。然而，在现代DDH治疗方法出现之前，吊带、石膏和牵引方法领域有了广泛的技术发展。本文旨在梳理DDH治疗发展的数百年历史以及众多相关重要人物。他们的器械、思想和理念至今仍对骨科手术的当前实践产生着深远影响。
