  1. Values are presented as the mean and the standard deviation, with range in parentheses; p means the differences between the cortical widths of type IVa DDH and type IVb DDH; *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01 for the comparison between the DDH groups; #p < 0.05, ##p < 0.01, when compared with control group
  2. GT greater trochanter, FH femoral head
