Patients can not wear normal footwear, and will undergo early degeneration of joints in the legs and is unable to walk long distances.

In Indonesia, if the number of live births each year to reach 4 million more, it can be obtained about 4,000 babies are born each year with CTEV ".

The importance of detection and treatment of DDH DDH early lead neonates also be part of a screening test in many countries.
