To analyze the results treatment patientswith AF arise depending on injury mechanism method treatment, evaluate effectiveness available methods preventing development these complications. Methods. A re...

Developmental dysplasia of the hip is the preferred term to describe the condition in which the femoral head has an abnormal relationship to the acetabulum. Developmental dysplasia of the hip includes frank dislocation (luxation), partial dislocation (subluxation), instability wherein the femoral head comes in and out of the socket, and an array of radiographic abnormalities that reflect inadeq...

Thirty-seven patients with extensive acetabular defects due to loose implants had revisions with uncemented components, the acetabulum being augmented with homograft bone. In six of these, a histological study of graft incorporation was made. At a mean follow-up of 1.5 years 34 patients were free of pain and 35 could walk for 30 minutes or longer. No graft had obviously sequestrated. Two compon...

Thank you very much for reading our paper and for your thoughtful comments. We appreciate your clarification regarding the original description of the lateral center edge angle as published by Wiberg in 1939.1 As you clearly state, this confusion regarding using the lateral edge of the acetabulum as compared with the lateral edge of the sourcil remains pervasive throughout orthopedic literature...
