Spinal deformity has a known deleterious effect upon the outcomes of total hip arthroplasty and acetabular component positioning. This study sought to evaluate the relationship between severity of spinal deformity parameters and acetabular cup position, rate of dislocation, and rate of revision among patients with total hip arthroplasties and concomitant spinal deformity. A prospectively collected database of patients with spinal deformity was reviewed and patients with total hip arthroplasty were identified. The full body standing stereoradiographic images (EOS) were reviewed for each patient. From these images, spinal deformity parameters and acetabular cup anteversion and inclination were measured. A chart review was performed on all patients to determine dislocation and revision arthroplasty events. Statistical analysis was performed to determine correlation of deformity with acetabular cup position. Subgroup analysis was performed for patients with spinal fusion, dislocation events, and revision THA.Background
