The prevalence of hip migration in Danish children with CP is significantly higher among non-ambulators, who are at an increased risk of hip migration compared to their ambulant counterparts. However, the low frequency of radiographic follow-up for ambulators might cause the incidence of hip migration to be underestimated. This study highlights the necessity of continued targeted surveillance and interventions in Danish non-ambulators.
