Hi, my
DD Ella is 6 weeks old and had an ultrasound last week to check her hips as the paed said she may have hip dysplasia when she was a day old also when we saw him again at 3 weeks.
We go back tomorrow to discuss results, though I picked up the scans and reports yesterday.
It says on the report: bilateral grade 2 acetabular dysplasia. it also says the right and left acetabular roof is shallow.
The left femoral head coverage measures 48% at rest and reduces to 38% when stressed.
The rightfemoral head coverage measures 44% at rest and reduces to 38% when stressed.
Does anyone know what this means? how bad is it? If she is gade 2 how many grades are there? will she need to be in a harness? etc.
I guess I will get some answers tomorrow at the paed, just so scared and sad for my little bub!
