Resumo(s)
Congenital knee dislocation (CKD) is a rare musculoskeletal condition that may occur in isolation or be associated with other congenital abnormalities. Prognosis depends on the severity of the deformity and the timing of diagnosis and treatment. Comprehensive assessment and close follow‑up are essential to optimize recovery and to exclude associated anomalies. We report the case of a female newborn with CKD, diagnosed postnatally, associated with developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH), generalized ligamentous laxity, congenital heart disease, and a chromosomal abnormality. Early conservative management, started in the first hour of life, resulted in successful reduction and complete recovery of knee mobility.
