Abstract (English): Currently, hip dysplasia is considered the most common congenital pathology at birth. Its incidence ranges between 25-50 cases per 1000 live births when the diagnosis is made through adequate ultrasound screening with the Graf method. Although hip screening with the Graf method is widely accepted in Europe due to its wide reliability and reproducibility, in America it has been difficult to permeate the technique to the medical community. Due to the above, and due to the high need to implement an accurate, reproducible and reliable diagnostic technique throughout Latin America, the Mexican Association of Hip Dysplasia and Ultrasound (AMDUC) decides to carry out this review with the objective of translating, combining and create a simple guide to the Original Graf Method, being the first Spanish-speaking one. This Review is based on the literature carried out or supervised by the author of the Method, in this way, the correct training of the professor who makes the diagnosis of hip dysplasia is achieved, using standardized language and criteria, and thereby avoiding diagnostic errors and treatment.

Abstract (Spanish): En la actualidad, la displasia de cadera es considerada la patología congénita más común al nacimiento. Su incidencia oscila entre 25-50 casos por cada 1000 nacidos vivos, cuando el diagnóstico es realizado mediante un adecuado tamizaje ecográfico con método Graf. A pesar de que en Europa es ampliamente aceptado el tamizaje de cadera con método Graf por su amplia confiabilidad y reproducibilidad, en América ha sido complicado el poder permear la técnica a la comunidad médica; por lo anterior, y debido a la alta necesidad de implementar una técnica diagnóstica certera, reproducible y confiable en toda latinoamerica, es que la Asociación Mexicana de Displasia y Ultrasonido de cadera (AMDUC) decide realizar esta revisión con el objetivo de traducir, conjuntar y crear una guía simple del Método Graf Original, siendo el primero de habla hispana. Esta Revisión esta basada en la literatura realizada o supervisada por el propio autor del Método, de este modo, se logra la correcta capacitación del médico que realiza el diagnóstico de displasia de cadera, usando un lenguaje y criterios estandarizados, y con ello evitar errores diagnósticos y de tratamiento.
