Our principle is to bring the socket back to the true acetabulum position. A large structural bone graft is required for severe subluxation. We obtained good long-term results with structural bone grafts. It is necessary to evaluate the bone graft 3 dimensionally, not 2 dimensionally. We evaluated our 305 primary THAs operated from April 2010 to Mar 2014. Structural bone grafts were utilized on the acetabulum in 39 cases (12.8%). We measured the CE angle on post-operative plain coronal x-rays. 3D-CT evaluation was carried out on the cases with CE angles of 0 degrees or less. We checked the position of the graft and see how much surface area the graft occupies of the total area that receives the load.Objectives
