Spica MRI after closed reduction for developmental dysplasia of the hip.

Desai, Aditi A.; Martus, Jeffrey E.; Schoenecker, Jon; Kan, J. Herman
- Abstract
Spica MRI is a fast and effective tool to assess morphology after closed reduction for developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) without the need for sedation. The multiplanar capabilities allow depiction of coronal and axial reduction of the hips. Due to MRI's inherent ability to delineate soft tissue structures, both intrinsic and extrinsic obstacles to failed reduction may be identified. Technical and interpretative challenges of spica MRI are discussed.
