Peri Acetabular Osteotomy Surgery Video

This is a video of a 27 year old girl who is having the same sugery as I am. The only difference in our story is that her hip dysplasia was found at birth, and she was put in a cast to correct it. However, her hip sockets still did not form correctly and still needs this surgery. Since she was aware of the dysplasia, she is able to do this surgery before her joint becomes arthritic. Unfortunately, mine was not found at birth, and my hip has been degenerating and developing arthritis over the last few years, hence my hip pain. This video isn't too long, and is not very graphic. Enjoy!
