Abstract
Tönnis acetabuloplasty is a powerful tool to increase primary stability of the hip when acetabular coverage is inadequate in DDH. Besides its acute correction ability, when performed properly, it has no unwanted effects on acetabular growth. As an isolated procedure or as a part of combined open reduction and/or femoral osteotomy, Tönnis type acetabuloplasty is a safe and effective method.
