Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Dysplasia of the hip joint (DDH) is a severe pathology of the musculoskeletal system which, if not diagnosed and treated in time, leads to impaired function of the hip joint. This leads to osteoarthritis, which requires surgical intervention. This case report describes a case where a cementless total hip arthroplasty (THA) of the left hip joint with a 6.5 cm transverse subtrochanteric shortening osteotomy (SSO) was performed. A special feature was the use of a newly developed plate that provides rotational and axial stability at the osteotomy site. With further observation and management of the patient. It is worth noting that this study and follow-up of the patient is ongoing. Keywords: developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH), arthroplasty, subtrochonteric osteotomy.
