This article describes modified surgical treatments adopted at Mount David Hospital in Bethlehem for the treatment of congenital hip dislocation in children. The modification in the treatment was aimed at enhancing the treatment results, which are usually affected by the two common positions of squatting and sitting cross legged. Excellent to good results were achieved in more than 75% of children under the age of five and in more than 67% of older children.
