MRI assessment of acetabular and femoral anteversion was done in 45 children with developmental dysplasia of the hip in an early walking age group of 12 to 48 months. Femoral anteversion, acetabular anteversion, acetabular anteversion of the cartilage anlage and acetabular index were measured by MRI in 45 dislocated hips and in a control group of 37 normal contralateral hips of index cases. We found that there was no statistically significant difference between these two groups for femoral anteversion. The acetabular anteversion was found to be significantly increased in the dislocated group compared to the normal group. Similar results were obtained for the cartilage anlage of the acetabulum. There was a positive correlation between acetabular anteversion and acetabular index, while there was no correlation between femoral anteversion and other parameters. We conclude that femoral anteversion is not increased, while the acetabulum is excessively anteverted on the dislocated side in developmental dysplasia of the hip in an early walking age group. Analysis of femoral and acetabular anteversion is an essential part of pre operative planning in developmental dysplasia of hip, and for this MRI is a good modality as it is radiation free.

Several studies suggested that total hip arthroplasty (THA) was more technical demanding following previous pelvic osteotomy (PO), resulting in poor outcomes compared with primary THA. However, the other studies regarding this topic had reported contradictory results. Therefore, we conducted this meta-analysis to compare the clinical results and other parameters between total hip arthroplasty following pelvic osteotomy and primary total hip arthroplasty.

Background: The ideal anteversion at which the acetabular and femoral components for a total hip arthroplasty (THA) should be implanted is still a subject of debate. One alignment philosophy being explored is restoration of individual constitutional femoral and acetabular anteversion. This study aimed to measure combined anteversion in a healthy hip population and understand the expected phenotypes and ranges for constitutional hip alignment.

Background: Use of jumbo femoral heads (≥ 40 mm) in total hip arthroplasty (THA) decreases postoperative dislocation, however, may leave patients more susceptible to groin pain. Limited data exist for the effect of jumbo femoral heads and acetabular cup position on modern patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs). This study evaluated the effect of jumbo femoral heads and acetabular cup position on PROMs after primary THA.

Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Hospital for Special Surgery, New York, NY, USA.
Introduction: Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is widely used for active, elderly patients with femoral neck fractures (FNF). Compared to THA for osteoarthritis, THA for FNF is associated with a higher incidence of dislocation and reoperation. Robotic assistance may improve component positioning and leg-length restoration in THA, but its use in FNF has not been described.
