Abstract Background Low back pain (LBP) from hip and spinal disorders has been one of the main reasons for visiting physicians in patients with developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). It is essential to identify the LBP improvement among all grades of DDH patients treated with total hip arthroplasty (THA) at 5-year follow-up. Methods The study included 407 hips of 306 patients (38 males, 268 females) who underwent THA between July 2007 and December 2016. There were 65 hips in Crowe I, 61 hips in Crowe II, 69 hips in Crowe III, and 212 hips in Crowe IV. One hundred and fourteen hips received subtrochanteric shortening.
