  FHHD > 10 mm
FHHD > 15 mm
Risk factors RR (95% CI) p-value RR (95% CI) p-value
Age at reduction 1.0 (1.0–1.0) 0.8 1.0 (1.0–1.1) 0.6
Initial severity        
 Tőnnis grade ≥ III 1.0 (0.6–1.5) 0.8 0.8 (0.4–1.7) 0.6
 AI at reduction 1.0 (1.0–1.0) 0.6 0.9 (0.9–1.0) 0.1
Reduction method        
 Anterolateral OR 1.6 (1.0–2.8) 0.08 2.4 (1.0–5.9) 0.06
 Femoral osteotomy 1.6 (1.0–2.5) a 0.03 2.3 (1.2–4.5) a 0.02

aStatistically significant.

FHHD = femoral head height difference; RR = relative risk;

CI = confidence interval; AI = acetabular index; OR = open reduction.
