Abstract

Abstract : Case: The Ganz periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) is widely used to correct developmental hip dysplasia in the adolescent and young adult population. The aim of this case study was to examine the novel utility and safety of Stoppa approach for the Ganz PAO in a 15-year-old girl and 25-year-old man. The Stoppa approach is traditionally used for acetabular fractures, and its use for a Ganz PAO is relatively novel. Conclusion: The Stoppa approach allows surgeons to successfully perform the Ganz PAO while simultaneously providing direct visualization for all osteotomies and vital structures.
