Summary

The complex anatomy of the neonatal hip is often difficult to image. Recently, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been used to evaluate the normal and abnormal neonatal hip. We correlated the MRI scans of the hip of a newborn cadaver with multiplanar cryo-sections stained according to Mallory-Cason, to detail the anatomic structures of the normal hip joint space. In our experience, MRI was shown to provide excellent depiction of hip anatomy.

Résumé

L'anatomie complexe de la hanche du nouveau-né est souvent difficile à illustrer. Récemment, l'IRM a été utilisée pour étudier la hanche normale et pathologique du nouveau-né. Nous avons corrélé des explorations IRM de la hanche d'un enfant mort-né avec des cryosections faites dans divers plans. La technique de coloration de Mallory-Cason a été utilisée pour montrer le détail des structures anatomiques de la hanche normale. Dans ce travail l'IRM s'est avérée un excellent moyen d'exploration de l'anatomie de la hanche.
