Özet


 We present two cases of pelvic pin migration after operations for Developmental Dysplasia of Hip Dysplasia (DDH). The wire was used for stabilization of the hips after open reduction for neglected unreduced DDH. The pins were protruding towards the bladder and they were all recognized at late follow up.  This unusual migration of Kirschner  wires into the pelvis has not been reported previously.
