Dyspraxia/hip dysplasia

My 10year old daughter is under Orthopedics consultant at our local hospital. He has said my daughter has abduction of both hips to 50 degrees, internal rotation of the right hip to 80, external to 30. Left side she has abduction to 50 and internal rotation to 70. She also has a 5-130 degree range of movement of her knee and he right leg is shorter than her left. She also has flat feet and knocked knees.
When we was in clinic the consultant said my daughter would need an operation to fix these problems but the letter I’ve received says that as she is diagnosed with dyspraxia he wouldn’t look at doing surgery as it could make things worse.
I’m so confused on how dyspraxia can make these problems worse when the operation is done to fix the problem?
Anyone been in a similar situation?
