Diagnostic Process for DDH
Diagnosing DDH starts with a specialist consultation. The orthopedic doctor assesses the child's hip joint and movement. Advanced imaging is key for an accurate diagnosis. The clinic offers the latest technology.
- Orthopedist Consultation: A detailed physical exam and history review. It typically costs around $300.
- CT Scan: Provides detailed 3D images of the hip bone structure. This scan costs around $400.
- MRI Scan: Shows soft tissues like cartilage and ligaments clearly. An MRI scan also costs around $400.
- Blood Tests: May include a CBC and biochemistry panel. These help rule out other conditions.
Surgical Treatment: Arthroscopy
The primary surgical option for DDH is arthroscopy. This is a minimally invasive procedure. A surgeon inserts a tiny camera into the joint. It allows for both diagnosis and treatment. Surgeons can repair damaged tissue with small instruments.
The surgery is performed in one of the hospital's 35 modern operating rooms. The listed price for arthroscopy ranges from $5,000 to $10,000. This range typically covers the surgery, anesthesia, and the required hospital stay. It does not usually include flights, accommodation, or medications after discharge. Hospital stay duration varies based on the specific procedure.
