Periacetabular Osteotomy (PAO)
PAO (Periacetabular Osteotomy): A surgical fix for hip dysplasia. Misalignment of the acetabulum causes pain and mobility issues. PAO repositions the hip socket, easing pain and delaying arthritis. It's ideal for younger patients, preserving the joint and restoring function. Complex but effective, it offers relief without immediate replacement surgery.
