Aims. The aims of this study were to validate the Forgotten Joint Score-12 (FJS-12) in the postoperative evaluation of periacetabular osteotomy (PAO), identify factors associated with joint awareness after PAO, and determine the FJS-12 threshold for patient-acceptable symptom state (PASS). Methods. Data from 686 patients (882 hips) with
In this prospective study a total of 80 consecutive
Chinese patients with Crowe type I or II developmental dysplasia of
the hip were randomly assigned for hip resurfacing arthroplasty
(HRA) or total hip replacement (THR). Three patients assigned to HRA were converted to THR, and three
HRA patients and two THR patients were lost to follow-up. This left
a total of 34 patients (37 hips) who underwent HRA and 38 (39 hips)
who underwent THR. The mean follow-up was 59.4 months (52 to 70)
in the HRA group and 60.6 months (50 to 72) in the THR group. There was
no failure of the prosthesis in either group. Flexion of the hip
was significantly better after HRA, but there was no difference
in the mean post-operative Harris hip scores between the groups.
The mean size of the acetabular component in the HRA group was significantly
larger than in the THR group (49.5 mm vs 46.1 mm, p = 0.001). There was
no difference in the mean abduction angle of the acetabular component
between the two groups. Although the patients in this series had risk factors for failure
after HRA, such as low body weight, small femoral heads and dysplasia,
the clinical results of resurfacing in those with Crowe type I or

Aims. The effect of pelvic tilt (PT) and sagittal balance in hips with pincer-type femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) with acetabular retroversion (AR) is controversial. It is unclear if patients with AR have a rotational abnormality of the iliac wing. Therefore, we asked: are parameters for sagittal balance, and is rotation of the iliac wing, different in patients with AR compared to a control group?; and is there a correlation between iliac rotation and acetabular version?. Methods. A retrospective, review board-approved, controlled study was performed including 120 hips in 86 consecutive patients with symptomatic FAI or
