Abstract

Ankylosis of the hip can occur spontaneously or it can be performed surgically (arthrodesis). Surgical ankylosis of the hip was initially indicated for the management of conditions such as sepsis, developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH), significant deformity of the femur or acetabulum that is not suitable for total hip arthroplasty (THA), neurological disorders that cause a high risk of dislocation and it remains a viable option in young patients who are not ideal candidates for other treatment options [1,2].
