AB  - The diagnosis of hip dysplasia has developed very differently in different countries over the last few decades. The development and current situation in Hungary is described in this paper. The Ortolani test is still the gold standard for clinical examination in most regions. Hip sonography is not officially established and is only used occasionally. However, thanks to private initiatives, more and more orthopaedic surgeons are now familiarising themselves with this method and the first courses are being held in accordance with International Interdisciplinary Consensus Committee on DDH Evaluation (ICODE) guidelines. A regional screening with Graf hip sonography was carried out in Szeged. The results of the evaluation impressively demonstrate the efficiency of this method.
