Patients with developmental dysplasia of the hip share a common pattern of anatomic abnormalities including an acetabulum that is shallow, lateralized, anteverted, and deficient anteriorly and superiorly. On the femoral side, the head is usually small, the neck is short and anteverted with a posteriorly placed trochanter, and the femoral canal is small. The neck-shaft angle is typically increased. The contact area of the femoral head and acetabulum is typically decreased.
