Eight cases of congenital dislocation of the hip were treated in our hospital with functional cast. Two cases failed in reduction by the Palvic Harness, and 6 cases were not treated before one year old. They were treated with our cast for 8 weeks after manual reduction. This cast enables the patients to move legs cephalad and caudal a little in axillar position. All cases obtained good results.
