Correct Answer » A Explanation

Technique shown in the photograph above is used for testing of congenital dislocation of hip.

Congenital hip dislocation is when the formation of the hip joint is abnormal. The ball at the top of the thighbone which is known as the femoral head is not stable within the socket (which is also known as the acetabulum). This abnormality may cause the ligaments of the hip to be loose or stretched.
