Early diagnosis of developmental dysplasia of the hip in newborns is essential if treatment is to be successful. Screening of newborns is appropriate because developmental dysplasia of the hip has a high prevalence [1] and significant morbidity [2, 3] and is treatable [4]. Screening by clinical examination alone has shortcomings [5], and the use of sonography for screening has been proposed [6]. The purpose of this article is to analyze the use of sonography in this regard.
如果要使治疗取得成功，新生儿髋关节发育不良的早期诊断至关重要。对新生儿进行筛查是合适的，因为髋关节发育不良具有高患病率[1]和显著的发病率[2,3]，并且是可治疗的[4]。仅通过临床检查进行筛查存在缺陷[5]，因此有人提议使用超声进行筛查[6]。本文的目的是分析超声在这方面的应用。
