Anden Posted November 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2013 Thanks folks much appreciated. This is what is being done. He has hip dysplasia. Doctor will be cutting the femur and rotating the ball end and pinning. So he gets to join the heavy metal club. Then with the piece of femur bone they will cut his pelvis to rotate the socket. After wards he gets a brace no cast till it heals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
