We compared the clinical outcomes of curved intertrochanteric varus osteotomy (CVO) with bone impaction grafting (BIG) with CVO alone for the treatment of osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). This retrospective comparative study included 81 patients with ONFH; 37 patients (40 hips) underwent CVO with BIG (BIG group) and 44 patients (47 hips) underwent CVO alone (CVO group). Patients in the BIG group were followed-up for a mean of 12.2 years (10.0 to 16.5). Patients in the CVO group were followed-up for a mean of 14.5 years (10.0 to 21.0). Assessment parameters included the Harris Hip Score (HHS), Oxford Hip Score (OHS), Japanese Orthopaedic Association Hip-Disease Evaluation Questionnaire (JHEQ), complication rates, and survival rates, with conversion to total hip arthroplasty (THA) and radiological failure as the endpoints.Aims
Methods
What represents clinically significant acetabular undercoverage
in patients with symptomatic cam-type femoroacetabular impingement
(FAI) remains controversial. The aim of this study was to examine
the influence of the degree of acetabular coverage on the functional
outcome of patients treated arthroscopically for cam-type FAI. Between October 2005 and June 2016, 88 patients (97 hips) underwent
arthroscopic cam resection and concomitant labral debridement and/or
refixation. There were 57 male and 31 female patients with a mean
age of 31.0 years (17.0 to 48.5) and a mean body mass index (BMI)
of 25.4 kg/m2 (18.9 to 34.9). We used the Hip2Norm, an
object-oriented-platform program, to perform 3D analysis of hip
joint morphology using 2D anteroposterior pelvic radiographs. The lateral
centre-edge angle, anterior coverage, posterior coverage, total
femoral coverage, and alpha angle were measured for each hip. The
presence or absence of crossover sign, posterior wall sign, and
the value of acetabular retroversion index were identified automatically
by Hip2Norm. Patient-reported outcome scores were collected preoperatively
and at final follow-up with the Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis
Outcome Score (HOOS).Aims
Patients and Methods
In developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH),
a bone defect is often observed superior to the acetabulum after
the reconstruction at the level of the true acetabulum during total
hip replacement (THR). However, the essential amount of uncemented
acetabular component coverage required for a satisfactory outcome
remains controversial. The purpose of this study was to assess the
stability and function of acetabular components with a
Severe acetabular dysplasia with established dislocation of the hip represents a common problem in cerebral palsy.

Once significant dysplasia is present little remodeling of the acetabulum occurs with femoral osteotomies alone. Pelvic osteotomies should address the problem of acetabular deficiency in order to restore optimal coverage of the femoral head.
