Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) ranges from a clinically detectable dislocation of the hip to radiologically diagnosed hip abnormalities. It is caused by both antenatal and postnatal factors. The Neonatal and Infant Physical Examination Screening Programme recommends that newborns should undergo a hip ultrasound (USS) when risk factor or clinical features suggestive of DDH are present. The aim of hip ultrasonography is to detect DDH early and prevent late complications through early treatment. Here, we discuss how to use hip examination and USS in newborns.
发育性髋关节发育不良（DDH）的范围从临床上可检测到的髋关节脱位到经放射学诊断的髋关节异常。它由产前和产后因素共同引起。新生儿及婴儿体格检查筛查计划建议，当存在提示DDH的危险因素或临床特征时，新生儿应接受髋关节超声（USS）检查。髋关节超声检查的目的是早期发现DDH，并通过早期治疗预防晚期并发症。在此，我们讨论如何在新生儿中进行髋关节检查及使用髋关节超声。
