BACKGROUND The Bernese periacetabular osteotomy is used in dysplastic hips to increase the load-bearing area of the hip and to prevent osteoarthritis. The aim of our work was to determine the contact hip stress before and after the osteotomy and to compare the relief of stress with the long-term radiographic and clinical outcome. PATIENTS AND METHODS We followed 26 dysplastic hips (26 patient...

We treated 31 hips in 30 patients with advanced osteoarthritis of the hip secondary to acetabular dysplasia, by valgus-extension femoral osteotomy. The mean follow-up was 12.7 years (10 to 17). Acetabuloplasty was added in ten severely dysplastic hips. In 28 hips, radiological widening of the joint space was seen three years after operation, but in 12 had narrowed again by ten years. Survivorsh...

We compared the dynamic instability of 25 dysplastic hips in 25 patients using triaxial accelerometry before and one year after periacetabular osteotomy. We also evaluated the hips clinically using the Harris hip score and assessed acetabular orientation by radiography before surgery and after one year. The mean overall magnitude of acceleration was significantly reduced from 2.30 m/s(2) (sd 0....

Objectives: The overall aim of this study is to evaluate the incidence acetabular dysplasia in asymptomatic Sudanese adults. Methods: This a cross-sectional population-based study, which includes radiographic examination Hip. A total 240 hips are studied scout view routinely done patients undergoing CT KUB. morphology acetabulum assessed by measuring center edge angle (CEA), angle, depth width ...

BACKGROUND The aim of this study is to affirm the importance of operative treatment of severe dysplastic coxarthrosis through analysis of the results of implantation of total cementless endoprothesis in patients with DDH Crowe types III and IV. PATIENTS AND METHODS This retrospective study involved 28 patients (30 hips) with dysplastic coxarthrosis, in whom an implantation of cementless total...

Hip pain can have multiple causes, including intra-articular, juxta-articular, and referred pain, mainly from spine or sacroiliac joints. In this review, we discuss the causes of intra-articular hip pain from childhood to adulthood and the role of the appropriate imaging techniques according to clinical suspicion and age of the patient. Stress is put on the findings of radiographs, currently co...

The typical dysplastic hip joint is characterised by maldirection of the acetabulum and femoral neck, insufficient coverage of the femoral head focally and globally and erosions of the limbus acetabuli (1). An unknown number of persons with hip dysplasia will suffer from pain in hip or groin, decreased hip function and development of osteoarthritis at a young age. The Bernese periacetabular ost...
