Periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) is an effective and widely used surgical treatment option for developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) with favorable long-term results. Stress fractures are classically regarded as a rare complication of PAO. Some recent studies have demonstrated greater rates of stress fractures, leading to conflicting data in the current literature regarding the true incidence rate of stress fractures following PAO.
