A, Anteverted femur and acetabulum in preoperative developmental dislocation of hip. B, Redirection of femoral neck by snug anterior capsulorrhaphy. C, Capsulorrhaphy and Salter innominate osteotomy. D, Capsulorrhaphy, Salter innominate osteotomy, and full femoral derotation. Combined in excess, this sequence can produce posterior dislocation. E, Open reduction, primary femoral shortening, derotation osteotomy, and Salter osteotomy produced fixed posterior hip dislocation in 5-year-old girl.
