We developed a method for the estimation of three-dimensional acetabular coverage of the femoral head with use of only an anteroposterior radiograph of the hip. This technique also allows recalculation of the corrected value for coverage at neutral pelvic tilt. Provided that the acetabulum and femoral head are spherical and congruent, the results are as accurate as those obtained with computerized tomographic reconstruction, the dose of radiation is much lower, and much less time is required for calculation. The hips of 286 normal subjects showed increases with age in both anterior and posterior coverage and backward tilt of the pelvis, along with a decrease in the anterior-posterior ratio of coverage. The proportion of anterior acetabular coverage in female subjects was smaller than that in male subjects. There was more backward tilt of the pelvis and the anterior-posterior ratio of coverage was smaller when the subjects were standing than when they were supine.

Rationale And Objectives: Accurate assessment of hip morphology is crucial for the diagnosis and management of hip pathologies. Traditional manual measurements are prone to mistakes and inter- and intra-reader variability. Artificial intelligence (AI) could mitigate such issues by providing accurate and reproducible measurements.

Background: The primary aim of this study was to quantitatively analysis the acetabular morphological feature and 2D/3D coverage of the Crowe IV DDH hip, dividing into subgroups by the false acetabulum. The secondary aim was to propose a 3D bone mapping to determine acetabular bone defect analysis from the perspective of the implanted simulation.
Methods: A total of 53 Crowe IV hips (27 hips without the false acetabulum in IVa group and 26 hips in IVb group) and 40 normal hips met the inclusion criteria and were retrospectively evaluated.

Matta's Roof Arc Angle (RAA) is utilised to evaluate the load-bearing dome in cases of acetabular fractures, assisting clinicians in making informed decisions regarding treatment options through the measurement of angular displacement. This assessment is crucial for the assessment of acetabular coverage and the stability of the femoral head, helping to determine whether surgical intervention or non-operative approaches are more suitable. Nevertheless, the variability of this method underscores the importance of incorporating additional criteria to ensure the best possible clinical outcomes for patients.

Department of Radiology, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, Dallas, TX 75235, United States.
Background: Hip dysplasia (HD) is characterized by insufficient acetabular coverage of the femoral head, leading to a predisposition for osteoarthritis. While radiographic measurements such as the lateral center edge angle (LCEA) and Tönnis angle are essential in evaluating HD severity, patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) offer insights into the subjective health impact on patients.
Aim: To investigate the correlations between machine-learning automated and manual radiographic measurements of HD and PROMs with the hypothesis that artificial intelligence (AI)-generated HD measurements indicating less severe dysplasia correlate with better PROMs.

Background: This study evaluated the results of total hip arthroplasty (THA) via the direct anterior approach (DAA) in the lateral decubitus position combined with acetabular reconstruction via a bulk autograft for patients with developmental dysplasia of the hip (Crowe III and IV).
Patients And Methods: A retrospective study was conducted to analyse 16 patients (16 hips) with Crowe type III and IV developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) who underwent THA from June 2016 to July 2021. We recorded and analysed variables such as age, sex, height, body mass index (BMI), length of surgical incision, duration of surgery, intraoperative blood loss, Harris hip score, visual analogue scale (VAS) score, lower limb length, and pelvic radiograph analysis.
