Published in 2021 at "Indian journal of orthopaedics"

DOI: 10.1007/s43465-021-00492-5

Abstract: Introduction Leg-length difference (LLD) is common in patients with developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). LLD of > 1 cm at skeletal maturity is reported in > 40% of patients, with the majority related to ipsilateral overgrowth. A longer DDH… read more here.
