Medial Protrusio Technique Versus Structural Autologous Bone-Grafting Technique in Total Hip Arthroplasty for Crowe Type II to III Hip Dysplasia.

Background: It is unclear whether acetabular reconstruction techniques have any impact on clinical outcomes. This study aimed to determine (1) whether acetabular reconstruction techniques influenced the position of the acetabular cup and (2) whether clinical outcomes based on the acetabular reconstruction techniques differ in patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA) with Crowe II to III developmental dysplasia of the hip.

Methods: This was a retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data from 69 patients (74 hips) who were treated with cementless THA using medial protrusio technique (MPT) or structural autologous bone-grafting technique (SABT).

The Clinical and Radiological Outcomes of Subtrochanteric Osteotomy in Crowe Type IV Hip Dysplasia: A Comparison of Three Different Stem Designs.

Aims: The purpose of this study was to determine whether there are differences in clinical and radiographic outcomes among three different stem designs for subtrochanteric osteotomy in Crowe type IV developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH).

Methods: A retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data was undertaken from a consecutive series of 37 Crowe type IV DDHs treatment of noncemented total hip arthroplasty with chevron subtrochanteric osteotomy in 30 patients. Patients are divided into three groups, including Ribbed group (using Link Ribbed stem; n = 14), Synergy group (using Synergy stem; n = 9), and Link Classic Uncemented (LCU) group (using LCU stem; n = 14), according to the design of the stem.
