We report nine cases of irreducible congenital dislocation of the knee which were treated by early operation with good results. All were resistant to conservative measures and operation was performed at an average age of nine months. The essential abnormality was a short quadriceps muscle together with subluxation of the hamstring muscles to lie anterior to the axis of knee flexion. The quadriceps tendon was lengthened by VY-plasty and in six cases additional length was gained by proximal mobilisation of the muscle. After operation all the patients were able to walk.
