INTRODUCTION Insufficient femoral head coverage is found in a variety of diseases, with acetabular dysplasia as the most frequent disorder and triple pelvic osteotomy as the most recently introduced surgical treatment. OBJECTIVE This study analyses pre- and postoperative pathoanatomic characteristics of triple in comparison to Salter and Chiari osteotomies, with a logistic regression analysis...

Tönnis triple pelvic osteotomy is an accepted technique to correct acetabular dysplasia and degenerative labral pathology. A series of 409 consecutive patients who underwent a triple pelvic osteotomy between 1987 and 1999 were followed for a mean of 7.1 years (2 to 15). Five patients (1.2%), all women, developed a double nonunion and required revision, which involved excision of the pseudarthro...

Dysplasia of the hip is characterized by malpositioning of the proximal femur in a shallow acetabulum, providing deficient femoral head coverage. This abnormal relationship leads to altered biomechanics of the hip joint, as predicted by measurement of kinematic parameters such as increased load over reduced acetabular weight-bearing area, leading to increased joint contact stresses, which subse...

Triple pelvic osteotomy is an accepted technique to correct acetabular dysplasia and degenerative labral pathology in young adults. Few papers mentioned the rate of nonunion at site of osteotomy of pubic bone and ischeal bone. No report about nonunion at site of osteotomy of iliac bone (up to the author's knowledge). Here the author reported a case of triple pelvic osteotomy which is complicate...

Methods One hundred and three nulliparous women attending the routine ultrasound scan at 18 weeks of pregnancy were recruited to the study. Background variables and continence status were registered in a structured interview. Women reporting urinary incontinence once per week or more during the last month were categorised as incontinent. All women were instructed in pelvic floor anatomy and how...

We treated 42 hips with symptomatic acetabular dysplasia using triple pelvic osteotomy. The mean age of the patients was 20.7 years (12-47). The median follow-up was 50.3 months. The average Harris hip score improved from 74 to 92 points. Significant improvement from the preoperative to the latest follow-up evaluation was seen radiologically with reference to the center-edge angle, the anterior...
