In order to clarify how intra-articular lesions influence the survival of a periacetabular osteotomy in patients with dysplasia of the hip, we performed an observational study of 121 patients (121 hips) who underwent a transposition osteotomy of the acetabulum combined with an arthroscopy. Their mean age was 40.2 years (13 to 64) and the mean follow-up was 9.9 years (2 to 18). Labral and cartil...

During the initial fragmentation stage of Perthes disease, the principle focus is to achieve containment of the femoral head within the acetabulum. Whether by bracing, abduction casts, femoral and/or pelvic osteotomy, the goals are to maximize the range of hip motion and to avoid incongruity, hoping to avert subsequent femoro-acetabular impingement or hinge abduction. A more subtle and insidiou...

We report a case of a 63-year-old man who presented an end stage hip osteoarthritis 42 years after a proximal femoral osteotomy performed for the treatment of an intracapsular femoral neck fracture. A cemented total hip arthroplasty was implanted using a standard posterior approach. The osteotomy hardware was totally covered with a new cortical bone formation. A layer of bone tissue was removed...

Proper component positioning is essential for successful total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Femoral component positioning presents a technical challenge when significant femoral deformity is present. Most commonly, an intramedullary guide is used to make an accurate distal femoral cut. However, in the presence of a significant femoral deformity, this is not a viable option.The use of clamshell oste...

Purpose of review Slipped capital femoral epiphysis is a common adolescent hip disorder. Management of chronic, stable slipped capital femoral epiphysis with in-situ screw fixation has been well defined, but controversy exists regarding management of the unstable hip disorder, the indications for prophylactic fixation of the contralateral hip and the role of osteotomy in the management of resid...

Femoral head coverage achieved with an acetabular osteotomy for hip dysplasia is achieved by acetabular rotation that can be restricted by osteotomy orientation and soft tissue attachments to the acetabular fragment. Procedures that allow excess rotation or motion in an undesirable direction (especially external rotation) may have undesirable consequences. Rotational aspects of these procedures...

Introduction
 Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) includes femoral head subluxation or dislocation and/or acetabular dysplasia. The gold standard treatment for DDH during walking age remains controversial. Treatment modalities that have been proposed to treat after are osteotomy and pelvic osteotomy. aim this study was assess radiographic results surgical age.

Revisions of fractured, uncemented and extensively porous-coated femoral stems are challenging. In this article, we report three cases of revision surgeries for broken, cementless, and extensively porous-coated femoral stems with Solution stems (DePuy, Warsaw, Indiana). In all cases, minimally invasive endofemoral revision was successfully performed without femoral osteotomy or cortical fenestr...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Pemberton osteotomy is commonly used for correction of hip-dysplasia. Its application in treating hip dislocation is rarely reported. The purpose of this study was to determine the efficacy of one-stage open reduction and Pemberton osteotomy of neglected developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the clinical and radiographic results o...

Transtrochanteric curved varus osteotomy was designed to avoid some of the disadvantages of varus wedge osteotomy, such as post-operative leg-length discrepancy. In this retrospective study we investigated the leg-length discrepancy and clinical outcome after transtrochanteric curved varus osteotomy undertaken in patients with osteonecrosis of the femoral head. Between January 1993 and March 20...
