hello every one,

i posted this message before but quite a few people asked me the cuase
of the dislocations?
the girl has Ehlers danlos syndrom. There are other joints that are
really unstable and dislocating but the hip ( and her collorbone) is
the most bothersome
The hip dislocates while flexing /abducting the leg.

i have a 23 year old female patient with recurrent hipdislocations.
She doesnt want to wear any bulky hinges. Is there any other
alternative to stabilize the hip joint.

thanks

ina
