A Contribuição Da Ultrassonografia (US) Dinâmica Na Investigação Da Displasia Dos Desenvolvimento Dos Quadris

Abstract

IntroductionCurrently ultrasound is the best diagnostic modality in the investigation of developmental dysplasia of the hip. Beyond the static morphological evaluation, ultrasound allows the study of dynamic joint stability, in real time.Methods InvolvedUltrasound evaluation using broadband linear transducers with a frequency of 5-12 MHz. High resolution movies have been documented for dynamic evaluation.DiscussionBased on the methodology described by Harcke in 1984, we will show films to illustrate clinical cases assisted in our department of diagnostic imaging, including patients with normal findings and others with significant hip instability.Conclusion of the PresentationDue to the ability of ultrasound in the evaluation of dynamic joint stability, this method constitutes first choice as a diagnostic test in the investigation of developmental dysplasia of the hip, especially in those cases where there is doubt on clinical examination.
