TEXT
The genetics is considered complex. Joint
laxity, normally greater in females than in males,
probably accounts for the preponderance of affected
females over males. Laxity of joints, often
familial (147900),
is probably a factor, especially in males. Hip
dysplasia with dislocation occurs in high frequency
in the German shepherd dog. Autosomal dominant
inheritance was favored by Bornfors
et al. (1964). Dislocation of the hip is an
occasional feature of conditions with simple
inheritance, e.g., Marfan syndrome and
Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. Record
and Edwards (1958) estimated the risk of
recurrence in subsequently born sibs to be about
5%. Congenital dislocation of the hip generally
behaves as a multifactorial trait. However,
Horton et al. (1979)
observed a kindred in which 16 males and 16 females
in 6 generations were affected. There were several
examples of male-to-male transmission. In 27 family
members hip dislocation was associated with joint
laxity. Five had joint laxity only. Six obligate
heterozygotes showed no abnormality. A classic
article by Perkins (1928)
on signs by which to diagnose congenital
dislocation of the hip was excerpted by Peltier
(1992).
