Objective: To explore the methods and application value of surface shaded display (SSD) and multiplanar reconstruction (MPR) in the evaluation of acetabular morphology in patients with developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) before total hip arthroplasty (THA).
Methods: From October 2003 to November 2006, 17 patients (3 males and 14 females, aging from 35 years to 61 years) with osteoarthritis secondary to DDH were scanned with spiral CT preoperatively. According to the Crowe standard, 19 dysplasia hips were classified as type I in 4 hips, type II in 9 hips, type III in 6 hips. The obtained hip CT data were developed with SSD and MPR to observe spatial position and bone stock of the acetabula.
Results: The dislocated extent was 25%-89% in these dysplasia hips according to the Crowe method and their sharp angles all exceeded 45 degrees. Bone defect occurred to each of the acetabula, among which it was located in anterosuperior acetabulum in 5 hips, in superolateral acetabulum in 11 hips and in posterosuperior acetabulum in 3 hips. The hip images made with MPR showed that the minimum thickness of the medial wall of acetabula ranged from 2.0 mm to 10.9 mm. Among 15 unilateral dysplasia patients, the opening difference and depth difference between the dysplasia acetabulum and the contralateral one ranged from 2.7 mm to 19.1 mm and from 2.3 mm to 13.1 mm, respectively.
Conclusion: SSD and MPR of spiral CT are effective methods in evaluating acetabular morphology preoperation and contribute to intraoperative acetabular reconstruction in patients with DDH performed THA.

High Rate of Complications With Early Conversion Hip Arthroplasty Following Fracture Treatment.

Background: Conversion total hip arthroplasty (THA) is associated with higher rates of complications compared with primary THA, with prior surgical fixation of fractures in the ipsilateral hip shown to further increase these rates. There is a scarcity of literature on the effect of timing of conversion THA on complication rates. In this study, we evaluated early (≤6 months of index surgery) and late (>6 months of index surgery) conversion to THA following prior fixation of the proximal femur or acetabulum.

Background: Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) encompasses a spectrum of pathological conditions, including dislocation, subluxation, and deformities of the femoral head and acetabulum. The optimal surgical approach for DDH remains a subject of debate. Successful treatment aims to achieve a stable concentric reduction and prevent future subluxation or dislocation.

Background/objectives: The redirection or reshaping of the acetabulum might be warranted to attain a concentric and stable hip in children with developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). The aim of this study is to assess the late clinical and radiological results, and to determine the number of patients requiring secondary surgery or a total hip arthroplasty at a long-term follow-up.
Methods: Our institution performed 99 Salter osteotomies on 76 patients without underlying neuromuscular conditions over a 21-year period, from 1981 to 2002.
Acetabular orientation, pelvic shape, and the evolution of hominin bipedality.

Hominin pelvic form differs dramatically from that of other primates by having more laterally facing iliac blades, a wider sacrum, and a larger, transversely broad pelvic inlet. The orientation of the acetabulum may also differ, plausibly related to differences in load transmission during upright posture and habitual bipedal locomotion, which may, in turn, affect overall pelvic geometry. We compared acetabular orientation in humans, a phylogenetically broad sample of extant anthropoid primates, and fossil hominins including Australopithecus afarensis (A.

In developing nations, patients often rely on traditional bone setters, leading to delayed diagnosis and increased complications. Adult hip dislocations carry a higher risk of avascular necrosis and require complex treatments.
