The aims of this study were to compare clinically relevant measurements of hip dysplasia on radiographs taken in the supine and standing position, and to compare Hip2Norm software and Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS)-derived digital radiological measurements. Preoperative supine and standing radiographs of 36 consecutive patients (43 hips) who underwent periacetabular osteotomy surgery were retrospectively analyzed from a single-centre, two-surgeon cohort. Anterior coverage (AC), posterior coverage (PC), lateral centre-edge angle (LCEA), acetabular inclination (AI), sharp angle (SA), pelvic tilt (PT), retroversion index (RI), femoroepiphyseal acetabular roof (FEAR) index, femoroepiphyseal horizontal angle (FEHA), leg length discrepancy (LLD), and pelvic obliquity (PO) were analyzed using both Hip2Norm software and PACS-derived measurements where applicable.Aims
Methods
This study aimed to determine the diagnostic performance of radiographic
criteria to detect aseptic acetabular loosening after revision total
hip arthroplasty (THA). Secondary aims were to determine the predictive
values of different thresholds of migration and to determine the
predictive values of radiolucency criteria. Acetabular component migration to re-revision was measured retrospectively
using Ein-Bild-Rontgen-Analyse (EBRA-Cup) and manual measurements
(Sutherland method) in two groups: Group A, 52 components (48 patients) found
not loose at re-revision and Group B, 42 components (36 patients)
found loose at re-revision between 1980 and 2015. The presence and
extent of radiolucent lines was also assessed.Aims
Patients and Methods
The purpose of this study was to determine the sensitivity, specificity
and predictive values of previously reported thresholds of proximal
translation and sagittal rotation of cementless acetabular components
used for revision total hip arthroplasty (THA) at various times
during early follow-up. Migration of cementless acetabular components was measured retrospectively
in 84 patients (94 components) using Ein-Bild-Rontgen-Analyse (EBRA-Cup)
in two groups of patients. In Group A, components were recorded
as not being loose intra-operatively at re-revision THA (52 components/48
patients) and Group B components were recorded to be loose at re-revision
(42 components/36 patients).Aims
Patients and Methods
The increased The proximal penetration of the femoral head five years post-operatively
was measured for 15 patients using radiostereometric analysis (RSA).Aims
