Summary

Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is the commonest hip problem seen by pediatric orthopaedic surgeons (1). DDH refers to an abnormal configuration of, or relationship between, the femoral head and the acetabulum .Principals of surgical treatment of DDH, however, always include reduction and stabilization. These principals could be applied by conservative or surgical means (2). Goal of Treatment options to Obtain and maintain reduction without damaging femoral head. Surgical Stabilization might be required in cases with failed conservative treatment, residual dysplasia or older children with neglected DDH. Surgical stabilization is generally achieved by a reduction into a near anatomical position and a complementary capsulorrhaphy (3). In the classic T-shaped capsular incision, the vertical branch parallel to the axis of the neck and the horizontal branch 5 mm from the iliac insertion of the capsule, from anterior and downward to posterior and upward. Two flaps are thus obtained (4). It was noticed that doing capsulorrhaphy after head reduction is cumbersome with this technique because it needs shallow-curved needles while suturing in narrow field and sometimes the suture material gets avulsed from medial flab. A suggested technique by doing a modified incision to make re -suturing of the capsule easier with multiple stitches.
