| congenital dysplasia of the hip | A malformation of the hip joint that is present at birth. Genetic factors likely play a role in this disorder. Features include hip dislocation, asymmetry of leg positions, asymmetric fat folds and diminished movement on the affected side. Some children will exhibit little or no features and must be diagnosed by physical examination of the hip joints. (27 Sep 1997) |

| hip dislocation, congenital | Congenital dislocation of the hip generally includes subluxation of the femoral head, acetabular dysplasia, and complete dislocation of the femoral head from the true acetabulum. This condition occurs in approximately 1 in 1000 live births and is more common in females than in males. (12 Dec 1998) |
| hand deformities | Alterations or deviations from normal shape or size which result in a disfigurement of the hand. These can be acquired after birth as the result of injury or disease or congenital occurring at or before birth. (06 Mar 2000) |
| nose deformities, acquired | Deformities of the nose acquired after birth from injury or disease. (12 Dec 1998) |
| ear deformities, acquired | Distortion or disfigurement of the ear caused by disease or injury after birth. (12 Dec 1998) |
| joint deformities, acquired | Deformities acquired after birth as the result of injury or disease. The joint deformity is often associated with rheumatoid arthritis and leprosy. (12 Dec 1998) |

| arthroplasty, replacement, hip | Replacement of the hip joint. (12 Dec 1998) |
| bursitis, hip | A bursa is a fluid-filled sac that functions as a gliding surface to reduce friction between moving tissues of the body. There are two major bursae of the hip. Bursitis is usually not infectious, but the bursa can become infected. Treatment of non-infectious bursitis includes rest, ice, and medications for inflammation and pain. Infectious bursitis is treated with antibiotics, aspiration, and surgery. (12 Dec 1998) |
| retinaculum of articular capsule of hip | One of several longitudinal folds of the articular capsule of the hip joint reflected onto the femoral neck deep to which the retinacular branches of the medial femoral circumflex artery pass to reach the femoral head. Synonym: retinaculum capsulae articularis coxae, Weitbrecht's fibres. (05 Mar 2000) |
