Four pathomechanisms underlying human developmental defects are described in the literature, i.e., dysplasia, malformation, disruption, and deformity. In the case of hip development, arguably the greatest challenge involves confusion between dysplasia and deformity, which often leads to misdiagnosis, incorrect nomenclature, and incorrectly chosen treatment. (2) Methods: A review of the scientific literature was performed. (3) Results: The paper presents a description of hip joint development disorders in the context of their pathomechanisms. An attempt was made to answer the question of whether these disorders are rooted in a primary disorder of tissue growth, resulting in incorrect anatomy, or are the result of anatomical deformations with secondary modifications in tissue structures\u2014of a degenerative or adaptive nature\u2014based on Delpech\u2013Hueter\u2013Volkmann growth and remodeling laws. In addition, the emphasis is placed on the presence of so-called clinically and diagnostically mute cases. We suggest augmenting diagnostic procedures with genetic tests to increase the sensitivity of screening. (4) Conclusions: Based on the arguments, a new division of developmental hip disorders is proposed.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/diagnostics15121547","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,6,18]],"date-time":"2025-06-18T04:08:06Z","timestamp":1750219686000},"page":"1547","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Distinction Between Dysplasia, Malformation, and Deformity\u2014Towards the Proper Diagnosis and Treatment of Hip Development Disorders"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"15","author":[{"given":"Jacek","family":"Dygut","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Medicare Clinic, Brook House, Lime Tree Court, Cardiff Gate Business Park, Mulberry Dr, Cardiff CF23 8AB, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4645-8730","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Monika","family":"Piwowar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Bioinformatics and Telemedicine, Medical College, Jagiellonian University, 31-034 Krak\u00f3w, Poland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,6,18]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"375","DOI":"10.1007\/s11832-014-0615-y","article-title":"A Review of Environmental Factors Implicated in Human Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip","volume":"8","author":"Rhodes","year":"2014","journal-title":"J.
