Abstract
Selective soft tissue release is commonly performed for hip subluxation and dislocation in cerebral palsy. We performed this method on 187 children and examined 33 hips in 27 children with cerebral palsy in which the pre-operative migration percentage was over 50.The subjects included 15 men and 12 women whose average age at operation was 6.9 years (range: 2.1 to 13.2). The mean duration of follow-up was 5.6 years(range: 2.1 to 8.8). We evaluated radiographes just before operation, one year after operation, and at final examination. The results were for the most part good, but some cases required osteotomy.
