Area of Focus: Hip, Knee, & Lower Extremity

Presents a modification of the Bernese periacetabular osteotomy that improves on the negative aspects of the procedure and develops a minimally invasive periacetabular osteotomy (MIPO). The incision is small and gluteal muscles are not detached. Features surgery on a young woman with grade 1 osteoarthrosis in both hips and reviews the results of 128 hips on 112 patients over 6 years. The video suggests that limiting the dissection prevents the outside of the ilium from being exposed and all iliac osteotomy surfaces have the same curvature. Illustrates how stable fixation and solid union of the iliac osteotomy can be accomplished.
