Trends, demographics and reoperation rates of periacetabular osteotomy: an analysis from the PearlDiver database.

This study aims to examine the trends and demographics of periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) in the United States from 2016 to 2020 using a large healthcare database analysis. The PearlDiver database was queried for patients who underwent a PAO procedure starting with current procedural terminology (CPT) codes 27299, S2115 and 27146. Subsequently, the population was filtered for patients being ages 12-50, having an inpatient charge-type and those having a length of stay of at least 1 day.
