Abstract: Objective To investigate the development and the risk factor of hip dislocation about children with cerebral palsy. Methods 90 children with cerebral palsy were divided with Chinese version of Gross Motor Function Classification System （GMFCS） and type of cerebral palsy. Their femoral head migration percentage was measured. Results The quadriplegia children were in the biggest risk of hip dislocation, hemiplegia children were the minimum; GMFCS Ⅰ children were in the lowest risk of hip dislocation, GMFCS Ⅴ children were the highest. Conclusion The abnormal development of the hip is correlative with the type of cerebral palsy and motor function in spastic cerebral palsy children.

Key words: cerebral palsy, hip dislocation, gross motor, femoral head, migration percentage
