Abstract

Traumatic disruption of the acetabular triradiate cartilage is an infrequent injury. When it occurs in early childhood, it may lead to growth changes in acetabular morphology. The morphology of this kind of acetabular dysplasia is uniform and differs significantly from that seen in classic developmental dysplasia of the hip. We present a case of bilateral post-traumatic acetabular dysplasia, which to our knowledge has not been reported. The morphology and the symptoms of impingement and periacetabular osteotomy of the hip joint are discussed.
