The Correlations of the Radiological Parameters of Hip Dysplasia and Proximal Femoral Deformity in Clinically Normal Hips of a Korean Population

چکیده
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to answer the following two questions: 1) Do the radiological parameters of dysplasia have significant correlations between themselves or with the parameters of the proximal femoral deformity and vice versa? 2) Do the physical parameters have a significant correlation with the radiological parameters of hip dysplasia and proximal femoral deformity? METHODS Four hundred and twenty eight consecutive patients with no clinical evidence of hip osteoarthritis and who underwent pelvic radiography in the supine position for hip contusion or a routine health check were analyzed for the relationships between the center-edge (CE) angle, acetabular depth, acetabular angle, the head-neck ratio and the neck-shaft angle as well as the relationships of the above-mentioned variables with age, gender, body height and the body mass index. RESULTS The CE angle, acetabular depth and acetabular angle showed a strong correlation with each other. The neck-shaft angle and the head-neck ratio showed no correlation with each other or with the CE angle, acetabular depth and acetabular angle. Age was positively associated with the CE angle, and inversely associated with the acetabular depth or acetabular angle. Male gender was significantly associated with the increased neck-shaft angle, and inversely associated with the head-neck ratio. CONCLUSIONS The radiological parameters of hip dysplasia are all strongly, if not perfectly, inter-correlated. Age was associated with the radiological parameters of hip dysplasia whereas gender was associated with the radiological parameters of a proximal femoral deformity.

Background and Objective: Arthrosis of the hip joint is one of the most common complications of patients and many efforts have been made to find its etiology. One of the subjects important for researchers is morphologic parameters of the hip joint and its relationship with osteoarthritis of this joint. Since these parameters themselves are affected by physical parameters of the body and the rac...
متن کاملDevelopment of the hip in diastrophic dysplasia.
We examined 50 patients with diastrophic dysplasia both clinically and radiologically. Two legally aborted fetuses were dissected. The mean age of the patients was 16.2 years (newborn to 38) and the mean follow-up was 11.4 years (3 months to 34 years). The fetal hips and MRI of newborn infants showed congruity and no significant joint deformity. Flexion contracture of the hip became evident lat...
متن کاملTotal Hip Arthroplasty Using the S-ROM-A Prosthesis for Anatomically Difficult Asian Patients
BACKGROUND The S-ROM-A prosthesis has been designed for the Asian proximal femur with a small deformed shape and narrow canal. In this study, the clinical and radiological results using the S-ROM-A prosthesis for Japanese patients with severe deformity due to dysplasia and excessive posterior pelvic tilt were examined. METHODS 94 hips were followed up for a mean of 55 months, with a mean age ...

Background: Developmental dysplasia of hip (DDH) is a common childhood disorder, and ultrasonography examination is routinely used for screening purposes. In this study, we aimed to evaluate a modified combined static and dynamic ultrasound technique for the detection of DDH and to compare with the results of static and dynamic ultrasound techniques. Methods:In this cross-sectional study...
متن کاملEffects of Hip Geometry on Fracture Patterns of Proximal Femur
Background: Some studies have previously shown that geometry of proximal femur can affect the probability of fracture and type of fracture. It happens since the geometry of the proximal femur determines how a force is applied to its different parts. In this study, we have compared proximal femur’s geometric characteristics in femoral neck (FNF), intertrochanteric (ITF) and Subtrochanteric (ST...
