The operative correction of the pathological flat acetabulum in congenital dislocation of the hip, myelodysplasia and cerebral palsy can be performed with pelvic osteotomies and acetabuloplasties. In the light of our own experiences gained with different methods we prefer the pericapsular osteotomy of the ilium according to Pemberton since 1971. After the evaluation of the results the advantages of the method compared with other procedures are presented in the light of the improvements of correction and the rate of complication.
