Complications developed in 9.3% of hips treated with ISP or MDP, with a higher rate of complications observed in the MDP group compared with the ISP group. This study is limited by the small sample size of the cohort and the disproportion in the number of cases in each treatment group. A multicenter study with larger sample sizes will be required to confirm these findings.
