Klisic Test

The Klisic Test is a clinical examination technique used to assess developmental hip dysplasia in infants, focusing on the alignment of hip structures.

A positive Galeazzi sign, different from the Klisic Test, indicates uneven knee heights with the knees and hip flexed, suggesting a potential hip problem.

The Ortolani and Barlow tests, unlike the Klisic Test, involve maneuvering the infant’s hips to detect dislocation or instability; the Ortolani reduces a dislocated hip, while the Barlow dislocates an unstable but located hip.
