A 12‐year review has been made of 114 eases of congenital dislocation of the hip joint in children treated in one institution. The general plan of treatment for all cases was similar and patterned on the practice of Scott and Somerville of Oxford. Ninety‐seven hip joints in 61 patients were re‐examined clinically and radiologically, and the results are analysed.
