Luxación de caderas y dolor en la atrofia muscular espinal tipo III. Casos clínicos

We report two patients with spinal muscular atrophy type III and hip dislocation with associated pain. The patients underwent arthrocentesis and infiltration with anaesthetic and corticoids, which achieved pain control. We believe that this is a good therapeutic option to consider when hip dislocation is associated with pain that cannot be controlled with conventional drug treatment.
