Abstract
AIM Preoperative identification of acetabular corrections that optimally improve joint stability and reduce elevated contact stresses could further reduce osteoarthritis progression in patients with hip dysplasia who are treated with periacetabular osteotomy (PAO). The purpose of this study was to investigate how providing patient-specific, mechanically optimal acetabular reorientations to the surgeon during preoperative planning affected the surgically achieved correction. METHODS Preoperative CT scans were used to create patient-specific hip models for 6 patients scheduled for PAO. A simulated acetabular fragment was extracted from the preoperative pelvis model and computationally rotated to simulate candidate acetabular reorientations. For each candidate, discrete element analysis was used to compute contact stresses during walking, which were summed over the gait cycle and scaled by patient age to obtain chronic contact stress-time exposure. The ideal patient-specific reorientation was identified using a cost function that balances minimising chronic stress exposures and achieving surgically acceptable acetabular coverage angles. The optimal reorientation angles and associated contact mechanics were provided to the surgeon preoperatively. After PAO was performed, a model of the surgically achieved correction was created from a postoperative CT scan. Radiographic coverage and contact mechanics were compared between preoperative, optimal, and surgically achieved orientations. RESULTS While surgically achieved reorientations were not significantly different from optimal reorientations in radiographically measured lateral (p = 0.094) or anterior (p = 0.063) coverage, surgically achieved reorientations had significantly (p = 0.031) reduced total contact area compared to optimal reorientations. The difference in lateral coverage and peak chronic exposure between surgically achieved and optimal reorientations decreased with increasing surgeon experience using the models (R² = 0.758, R2 = 0.630, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Providing hip surgeons with a patient-specific, computationally optimal reorientation during preoperative planning may improve contact mechanics after PAO, which may help reduce osteoarthritis progression in patients with hip dysplasia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Traumatic, posterior hip dislocations in the pediatric population are typically managed by closed reduction to achieve a concentric hip joint. The presence of an acetabular "fleck" sign, despite concentric reduction, has been shown to signify significant hip pathology. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the outcomes of open labral repair through a surgical hip dislocation (SHD) in a consecutive series of patients with an acetabular "fleck" sign associated with a traumatic hip dislocation/subluxation. METHODS A retrospective review of patients between 2008 and 2022 who presented to a single, level 1 pediatric trauma center with a traumatic posterior hip dislocation/subluxation was performed. Patients were included if they had an acetabular "fleck" sign on advanced imaging and underwent open labral repair through SHD. Medical records were reviewed for sex, age, laterality, mechanism of injury (MOI), and associated orthopaedic injuries. The modified Harris hip score (mHHS) was utilized as the primary clinical outcomes measure. Patients were assessed for the presence of heterotopic ossification (HO) and complications, including implant issues, infection, avascular necrosis (AVN), and post-traumatic dysplasia. RESULTS Twenty-nine patients (23 male, average age: 13.0±2.7 y; range: 5.2 to 17.3) were identified. Eighteen injuries were sports related, 9 caused by motor vehicle accidents, and 1 pedestrian struck. All patients were found to have an acetabular "fleck" sign on CT (26 patients) or MRI (5 patients). Associated injuries included: femoral head fracture (n=6), pelvic ring injury (n=3), ipsilateral femur fracture (n=2), and ipsilateral PCL avulsion (n=1). At the latest follow-up (2.2±1.4 y), all patients had returned to preinjury activity/sport. Three patients developed asymptomatic, grade 1 HO in the greater trochanter region. There was no incidence of AVN. One patient developed post-traumatic acetabular dysplasia due to early triradiate closure. mHHS scores showed excellent outcomes (n=21, 94.9±7.4, range: 81 to 100.1). CONCLUSIONS The acetabular "fleck" sign indicates a consistent pattern of osteochondral avulsion of the posterior/superior labrum. Restoring native hip anatomy and stability is likely to improve outcomes. SHD with open labral repair in these patients produces excellent clinical outcomes, with no reported cases of AVN. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level IV-therapeutic.

Abstract
This review describes our institution's standardized technique as well as potential pitfalls for therapeutic steroid injections in children with symptomatic neuromuscular hip dysplasia. Symptomatic, painful neuromuscular hip dysplasia can dramatically affect quality of life. Steroid injections are used to identify the source of perceived pain, temporarily treat pain while awaiting surgical intervention, or for therapeutic management for nonoperative hip joints.

Abstract
The Periacetabular Osteotomy is a technically demanding procedure that requires precise intraoperative evaluation of pelvic anatomy. Fluoroscopic images pose a radiation risk to operating room staff, scrubbed personnel, and the patient. Most commonly, a Standard Fluoroscope with an Image Intensifier is used. Our institution recently implemented the novel Fluoroscope with a Flat Panel Detector. The purpose of this study was to compare radiation dosage and accuracy between the two fluoroscopes. A retrospective review of a consecutive series of patients who underwent Periacetabular Osteotomy for symptomatic hip dysplasia was completed. The total radiation exposure dose (mGy) was recorded and compared for each case from the standard fluoroscope (n = 27) and the flat panel detector (n = 26) cohorts. Lateral center edge angle was measured and compared intraoperatively and at the six-week postoperative visit. A total of 53 patients (96% female) with a mean age and BMI of 17.84 (± 6.84) years and 22.66 (± 4.49) kg/m2 (standard fluoroscope) and 18.23 (± 4.21) years and 21.99 (± 4.00) kg/m2 (flat panel detector) were included. The standard fluoroscope averaged total radiation exposure to be 410.61(± 193.02) mGy, while the flat panel detector averaged 91.12 (± 49.64) mGy (p < 0.0001). The average difference (bias) between intraoperative and 6-week postoperative lateral center edge angle measurement was 0.36° (limits of agreement: - 3.19 to 2.47°) for the standard fluoroscope and 0.27° (limits of agreement: - 2.05 to 2.59°) for the flat panel detector cohort. Use of fluoroscopy with flat panel detector technology decreased the total radiation dose exposure intraoperatively and produced an equivalent assessment of intraoperative lateral center edge angle. Decreasing radiation exposure to young patients is imperative to reduce the risk of future comorbidities.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To examine radiologic outcomes at skeletal maturity of sonographically normal, immature, mildly, and severely dysplastic newborn hips. METHODS During 1988 to 1990, 11 925 newborns were enrolled in a randomized controlled trial examining screening strategies for developmental hip dysplasia. In total, 4469 were invited to clinical and radiologic follow-up 18 years later, of which 1735 had received neonatal ultrasound. Radiographic markers for dysplasia in left adult hips included the center-edge (CE) angle. RESULTS At follow-up, 984 of 1735 (56.7%) with newborn ultrasound met, of which 966 (614 females) had valid radiographs and were thus included. For females, 34 (10.2%) and 1 (0.3%) of the 332 sonographically normal left neonatal hips were judged borderline (20°≤ CE <25°) or dysplastic (CE <20°) at skeletal maturity respectively. Corresponding numbers were 36 (19.7%) and 3 (1.6%) of the 183 immature, 12 (15.6%) and 2 (2.6%) of the 77 mildly dysplastic, and 3 (13.6%) and 3 (13.6%) of the 22 severely dysplastic neonatal left hips (P ≤ .001). In males, no associations were found. In females, adult joint hypermobility was associated with sonographic neonatal hip instability (P = .046), as well as with adult acetabular dysplasia (P = .024). CONCLUSIONS Significant associations between neonatal hip phenotypes and adult dysplasia were revealed in females. This indicates the possibility of different mechanisms affecting the course of developmental dysplasia of the hip for females and males, prompting consideration of prolonged clinical and radiologic follow-up for females with dysplastic neonatal hips. Results in males are limited by low numbers of dysplastic hips. The significance of joint hypermobility warrants further investigation.

Abstract
Femoral head fractures are rare traumatic injuries that are usually associated with hip dislocations. Open reduction and internal fixation are performed when indicated, but can be associated with a higher risk of avascular necrosis. We report the case of a 24-year-old patient with a Pipkin type II fracture dislocation of the femoral head fixed via a minimally invasive three-dimensional navigated internal fixation technique. This technique minimizes deep soft tissue dissection to the hip capsule and associated vascularity and allows for accurate implant positioning.Level of evidence: Therapeutic case report Level IV.

Abstract
This article describes three cases in which a dislocated hip prosthesis was reduced by a new reduction technique - that we previously described - using traction table. The dissociation of a prosthesis is a rare but serious complication of closed reduction manoeuvre. The new reduction manoeuvre using a traction table may be a good option to avoid dissociation of the prosthesis during closed reduction for treatment of dislocation after total hip arthroplasty.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Management controversy and clinical equipoise exist in treatments of long bone fractures and traumatic hip dislocation in paediatric patients due to the lack of high-quality clinical evidence. This protocol describes the effort of a large prospective global multicentre cohort study (registry) aiming at providing quality data to assist evidence-based treatment decision-making. METHODS AND ANALYSIS Eligible paediatric patients (N=750-1000) with open physes suffering from proximal humerus fractures, distal humerus fractures, proximal radius fractures, forearm shaft fractures, traumatic hip dislocations, femoral neck fractures or tibial shaft fractures will be recruited over a period of 24-36 months. Hospitalisation and treatment details (including materials and implants) will be captured in a cloud-based, searchable database. Outcome measures include radiographic assessments, clinical outcomes (such as range of motion, limb length discrepancies and implant removal), patient-reported outcomes (Patient Reported Outcomes Of Fracture, Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) and EuroQol-5D (EQ-5D-Y)) and adverse events.Aside from descriptive statistics on patient demographics, baseline characteristics, types of fractures and adverse event rates, research questions will be formulated based on data availability and quality. A statistical analysis plan will be prepared before the statistical analysis. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION Ethics approval will be obtained before patients are enrolled at each participating site. Patient enrolment will follow an informed consent process approved by the responsible ethics committee. Peer-reviewed publication is planned to disseminate the study results.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hip dysplasia can lead to pain and dysfunction in the young adult. Acetabular undercoverage leads to abnormal joint loading and results in joint degeneration, accelerating need for arthroplasty in this patient population. Conceptually, treatment focuses on increasing acetabular coverage in the form of periacetabular osteotomy. The procedure can be performed through the iliofemoral approach, and performing an anterior superior iliac spine (ASIS) osteotomy can enhance the visualisation in this approach. Several techniques have been described for ASIS osteotomy. AIM The purpose this study was to report on step-cut technique for ASIS osteotomy during the Bernese periacetabular osteotomy procedure to enhance visualisation when utilising the iliofemoral approach. SURGICAL TECHNIQUE This step-cut technique enhances stability at the osteotomy site, and minimises soft tissue dissection to reduce pain and assists with maintaining a stable fixation construct postoperatively. RESULTS There were no nonunions and minimal morbidity to the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve injury in cohort of 86 patients while utilising this technique. CONCLUSIONS We recommend using this step-cut ostetomy of the ASIS during Bernese periactetabular osteotomy for benefit of increasing exposure while maintaining a low complication profile.

Abstract
The Orthopedic Foundation for Animals (OFA) radiographic grading system stands as a well-established benchmark for categorizing hip dysplasia in canines. Although more objective techniques to quantify early hip laxity in young dogs, such as the Norberg angle (NA) and distraction index (DI), have been documented, there is a scarcity of published studies that directly compare these radiographic measures. The primary objectives of this prospective, analytical study were to assess and compare the NA and DI measures with OFA grades within a cohort of dogs. Thirty dogs (57 hip joints) were evaluated, with a mean age of 5.4 ± 2.9 years and a mean body weight of 34.3 ± 7.1 kg. The discriminative power of hip dysplasia for DI and NA used OFA as a reference were compared by multivariate discriminant analysis test. Using the DI (≤0.3) 12 joints were classified as normal, using NA (≥105°) 24 joints and using OFA (≤3) 29. When comparing the discriminant power of NA with OFA resulting similar (P = .8324) with correct classifications of 81% using cross validation, however, the discriminant power of dysplasia of the DI resulted significantly greater (P = .0034) than OFA with correct classifications of only 59% using cross-validation, consequently it was possible determined that of 29 patients with OFA ≤ 3, 20 had DI > 0.3. These findings demonstrated that phenotypic healthy dogs according to OFA grading can present passive hip joint laxity, as demonstrated by radiographic evaluation with distraction. Furthermore, DI can contribute to the screening of CHD when evaluated in conjunction with OFA grading.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Traumatic hip dislocation is a rare yet severe injury. As the long-term morbidity, subsequent complications, and clinical outcomes are nearly unknown, we aimed to analyze traumatic hip dislocations and identify specific factors that may predict the clinical outcome. METHODS Data on injury-related characteristics and computed tomographic (CT) scans for all consecutive adult patients who had been managed for traumatic hip dislocation between 2009 and 2021 were analyzed. At the time of follow-up, the patients were assessed with regard to osteonecrosis, posttraumatic osteoarthritis (OA), further operations and complications, return to sports and work, and patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs), including the Tegner Activity Scale and modified Harris hip score. RESULTS One hundred and twelve patients (mean age [and standard deviation], 43.12 ± 16.6 years) were included. Associated acetabular rim and femoral head fractures (Pipkin Type I to IV) were observed in 44% and 40% of patients, respectively. Concomitant injuries occurred in 67% of the patients, most commonly involving the knee (29% of patients). Sixty-nine patients (61.6%) were available for follow-up; the mean duration of follow-up was 6.02 ± 3.76 years. The rates of osteonecrosis and posttraumatic OA were 13% and 31.9%, respectively, and were independent of the timing of hip reduction, leading to subsequent total hip arthroplasty (THA) in 19% of patients. Sciatic nerve injury occurred in 27.5% of the patients who were available for follow-up. Both THA and sciatic nerve injury were associated with posterior acetabular rim or Pipkin Type-IV fractures (p < 0.001). Only 33.3% of the patients returned to their pre-injury level of sports, 24.6% did not return to work, and 27.5% reported having sexual dysfunction. PROMs (Tegner Activity Scale, modified Harris hip score) were significantly worse in patients with osteonecrosis, posttraumatic OA, or residual sciatic nerve injury (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Traumatic hip dislocations are predominantly associated with Pipkin and acetabular rim fractures, leading to overall limitations of activities of daily living, sports, and sexual function at intermediate to long-term follow-up. Patients with associated acetabular rim or Pipkin Type-IV fractures are most likely to require THA for the treatment of osteonecrosis or posttraumatic OA and are at greater risk for sustaining sciatic nerve injury.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hip dysplasia is a condition where the acetabulum is too shallow to support the femoral head and is commonly considered a risk factor for hip osteoarthritis. The objective of this study was to develop a deep learning model to diagnose hip dysplasia from plain radiographs and classify dysplastic hips based on their severity. METHODS We collected pelvic radiographs of 571 patients from two single-center cohorts and one multicenter cohort. The radiographs were split in half to create hip radiographs (n = 1022). One orthopaedic surgeon and one resident assessed the radiographs for hip dysplasia on either side. We used the center edge (CE) angle as the primary diagnostic criteria. Hips with a CE angle < 20°, 20° to 25°, and > 25° were labeled as dysplastic, borderline, and normal, respectively. The dysplastic hips were also classified with both Crowe and Hartofilakidis classification of dysplasia. The dataset was divided into train, validation, and test subsets using 80:10:10 split-ratio that were used to train two deep learning models to classify images into normal, borderline and (1) Crowe grade 1-4 or (2) Hartofilakidis grade 1-3. A pre-trained on Imagenet VGG16 convolutional neural network (CNN) was utilized by performing layer-wise fine-turning. RESULTS Both models struggled with distinguishing between normal and borderline hips. However, achieved high accuracy (Model 1: 92.2% and Model 2: 83.3%) in distinguishing between normal/borderline vs. dysplastic hips. The overall accuracy of Model 1 was 68% and for Model 2 73.5%. Most misclassifications for the Crowe and Hartofilakidis classifications were +/- 1 class from the correct class. CONCLUSIONS This pilot study shows promising results that a deep learning model distinguish between normal and dysplastic hips with high accuracy. Future research and external validation are warranted regarding the ability of deep learning models to perform complex tasks such as identifying and classifying disorders using plain radiographs.

Abstract
Anterior hip dislocations as compared to posterior, rarely occurs. Nevertheless, it is important to be prepared to manage it. Physical examination and imaging are crucial in detecting this type of dislocation and ruling out any associated fractures. The most important thing is not delaying reduction which is done in a closed manner preferably in the operating room and under general anesthesia. Post-operative complications should be monitored. As for rehabilitation it is still debated and no consensus was reached.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is a spinal deformity that affects adolescents and poses a challenging public health problem. Compared to the general population, adolescents with AIS have a higher prevalence of hip dysplasia. However, the mechanisms underlying the impact of hip dysplasia on the coronal balance of the spine remain poorly understood. We hypothesized that the combination of AIS with hip dysplasia would exacerbate coronal imbalance. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed the medical records and radiographs of adolescents diagnosed with AIS between 2015 and 2020. Participants were divided into two groups: those with hip dysplasia and those without. We recorded parameters related to the coronal deformity of the spine, sacral and pelvic obliquity, and center edge angle (CEA). We investigated differences in these parameters in those with and without hip dysplasia and analyzed their relationships in those with combined AIS and hip dysplasia. RESULTS A total of 103 adolescents were included, 36 with hip dysplasia and 67 without. Those with hip dysplasia had significantly higher sacroiliac discrepancy (SID) compared to those without (t = - 2.438, P = 0.017). In adolescents with hip dysplasia, only iliac obliquity angle (IOA) was significantly correlated with SID (r = - 0.803, P < 0.001), with a linear relationship between them (r2 = 0.645, P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS The incidence of hip dysplasia is higher in the AIS population. In adolescents with combined AIS and hip dysplasia, pelvic obliquity is greater, potentially contributing to the increased prevalence of low back pain.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Timely recognition of dysplastic hip morphology is critical to facilitate appropriate management before significant joint damage has developed. It is likely that radiologist under reporting contributes to delays in diagnosis. This study aimed to assess how often adult hip dysplasia goes undetected in radiological reports and to identify clinical and radiological variables that impact the likelihood of detection of dysplasia by radiologists. METHODS Referral details and radiology reports of patients who underwent periacetabular osteotomy by a single surgeon for symptomatic hip dysplasia between 1 January 2016 and 30 June 2020 were reviewed. Four assessors measured the lateral centre edge angle from the pelvic radiograph performed at time of referral. Film quality and other radiographic parameters were also assessed. RESULTS Sixty-eight patients were included, 84% were female and the median age was 28.1 years. Dysplasia was not documented in the radiology report in 49% of cases. Dysplasia was more likely to be reported with no history of injury, an aspherical femoral head, lower lateral centre edge angle, higher acetabular index, increased femoral head shaft angle, higher femoro-epiphyseal acetabular roof index, or if there was disruption of Shenton's line, with the first three variables being independent predictors of radiologist detection. CONCLUSION Hip dysplasia should be considered in all adolescents/young adults presenting with hip pain. Causes of radiologist under reporting are likely multifactorial. Clinical information can cause cognitive biases and result in selective looking. A systematic approach to pelvis radiographs should include assessment of acetabular coverage and active search for evidence of femoral head migration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The relationship between hip displacement (HD), pelvic obliquity (PO), and scoliosis in nonambulatory children with cerebral palsy (CP) has not been clearly elucidated. The aims of this population-based study were to examine the prevalence and temporal sequence of these deformities in nonambulatory children with CP and to evaluate how probable it is that severe unilateral HD contributes to development of scoliosis. PATIENTS AND METHODS This longitudinal study comprised 106 nonambulatory children, enrolled in a surveillance program. Pelvic radiographs for measurements of migration percentage (MP) and PO were taken once a year from the diagnosis of HD. Spine radiographs were taken in patients with clinically detected scoliosis. Radiographic follow-up continued until skeletal maturity. RESULTS Clinically significant scoliosis (Cobb angle ≥ 40°) occurred in 60 patients at a mean age of 11.8 years. 65 patients developed clinically significant HD (MP ≥ 40%) at a mean age of 4.8 years. 24 patients had no significant hip or spine deformities, 22 had HD only, 17 had scoliosis only, and 43 had both deformities. HD was diagnosed before scoliosis in all except 1 of the patients with both deformities. 14 of 19 patients with severe unilateral HD (MP ≥ 60%) had scoliosis convexity to the opposite side of the displaced hip. CONCLUSION The combination of scoliosis and HD was frequent, and HD was diagnosed first in almost all the patients. HD might be a contributory cause of scoliosis in patients with severe, unilateral HD, PO, and later scoliosis with convexity to the opposite side.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The role of acetabular and femoral component positions with respect to the risk of post-operative instability and dislocation remains debated. In this study, we aimed to identify potential risk factors for early dislocation following primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) for displaced intracapsular femoral neck fractures (FNF) using radiological measurements. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed data for patients who underwent cementless primary THA for FNF using a posterolateral approach between January 2018 and December 2021. Follow-up duration, age, sex, affected side, and mean time from THA to dislocation were recorded. Leg-length inequality, abductor lever arm, vertical and horizontal femoral offsets, vertical and horizontal hip centers of rotation, abduction, anteversion of the acetabulum and femoral prosthesis, and combined anteversion were measured. RESULTS The study sample included 17 men and 34 women, with 21 and 30 patients undergoing left- and right-hip operations, respectively. The mean patient age was 70.18 ± 7.64 years, and the mean follow-up duration was 27.73 ± 13.52 months. The mean time between THA and dislocation was 1.58 ± 0.79 months. Seven patients (13.73%) sustained posterior dislocation of the hip. The abduction angle (36.05 ± 6.82° vs. 45.68 ± 8.78°) (p = 0.008) and anteversion of the femoral prosthesis (8.26 ± 4.47° vs. 19.47 ± 9.01°) (p = 0.002) were significantly lower in the dislocation group than in the control group. There were no significant differences in other parameters. CONCLUSIONS Insufficient stem antetorsion combined with lower abduction angle of the acetabular component were associated with a high risk of dislocation, especially in patients with deep flexion or internal rotation of the flexed hip joint and knees, or in patients with a stiff spine or anterior pelvic tilt, impingement may then occur in the neck of the prosthesis and cup component, ultimately resulting in posterior dislocation. These findings could remind surgeons to avoid simultaneous occurrence of both in THA surgery. These results provide new insight into risk factors for hip dislocation in patients undergoing primary THA for FNF and may aid in reducing the risk of instability and dislocation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although Dega acetabuloplasty is widely used for the treatment of developmental dysplasia of the hip, there is a paucity of data on long-term outcomes. The purpose of the study was to evaluate the rate of residual acetabular dysplasia after Dega acetabuloplasty. METHODS Patients of a previously reported consecutive series of 35 patients (43 hips) operated by a single surgeon were recontacted for long-term follow-up. Of these, 25 patients (32 hips) consented, with a follow-up rate of 71% (74% of hips). The mean age at the time of surgery was 35 (18 to 65) months. The presence of residual dysplasia was noted according to the lateral center-edge angle of Wiberg, femoral head extrusion index, and Tönnis angle. The latest radiographic outcome was evaluated according to the Severin classification and patients were clinically evaluated according to the modified McKay criteria. RESULTS The mean follow-up duration of 16.5 (12 to 20) years yielded an average age of 19.2 (14 to 23) years at the time of analysis. According to lateral center-edge angle, femoral head extrusion index, and Tönnis angle, 5 (15.6%) hips were dysplastic and 2 (6.3%) hips were reoperated for resubluxation. Thus, a total of 7 hips (21.9%) were considered to have residual dysplasia. With the exception of 2 hips that underwent further osteotomies, no other hips were re-subluxated or redislocated. Overcoverage was noted in 6 (18.7%) hips. There were 26 Severin group I and II (81.3%), 4 Severin group III (12.5%), and 2 Severin group IV (6.2%) hips. According to modified McKay criteria, 20 (62.5%) hips were excellent, 7 (21.9%) hips were good, and 5 (15.6%) were fair. Severin classification and modified McKay criteria were correlated with dysplasia ( P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Seventy-eight percent of the hips treated by Dega acetabuloplasty for developmental dysplasia of the hip did not have acetabular dysplasia at a mean follow-up of 16 years. Even in well-treated asymptomatic hips, patients should be followed regularly, especially for residual dysplasia. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level IV.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hip dysplasia is a common condition in active adults with hip pain that can lead to joint degeneration. Periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) is a common surgical treatment for hip dysplasia. The effect of this surgery on pain, function and quality of life (QOL) has not been systematically analysed. PURPOSE In adults with hip dysplasia: (1) evaluate differences in pain, function and QOL in those undergoing PAO and healthy controls; (2) evaluate pre- to post-PAO changes in pain, function and QOL; (3) evaluate differences in pain, function and QOL in those with mild versus severe dysplasia, undergoing PAO; and (4) evaluate differences in pain, function and QOL in those having primary PAO versus those with previous hip arthroscopy. METHODS A comprehensive, reproducible search strategy was performed on 5 different databases. We included studies that assessed pain, function and QOL in adults undergoing PAO for hip dysplasia, using hip-specific patient reported outcomes measures. RESULTS From 5017 titles and abstracts screened, 62 studies were included. Meta-analysis showed PAO patients had worse outcomes pre- and post-PAO compared to healthy participants. Specifically, pain (standardised mean difference [SMD] 95% confidence interval [CI]): -4.05; -4.78 to -3.32), function (-2.81; -3.89 to -1.74), and QOL (-4.10; -4.43 to -3.77) were significantly poorer preoperatively.Meta-analysis found patients experienced improvements following PAO. Pain improved from pre-surgery to 1-year (standardised paired difference [SPD] 1.35; 95% CI, 1.02-1.67) and 2 years postoperatively (1.35; 1.16-1.54). For function, the activities of daily living scores at 1 year (1.22; 1.09-1.35) and 2 years (1.06; 0.9-1.22) and QOL at 1 year (1.36; 1.22-1.5) and 2 years (1.3; 1.1-1.5) all improved. No difference was found between patients undergoing PAO with mild versus severe dysplasia. CONCLUSIONS Before undergoing PAO surgery, adults with hip dysplasia have worse levels of pain, function and QOL compared to healthy participants. These levels improve following PAO, but do not reach the same level as their healthy participants. REGISTRATION PROSPERO (CRD42020144748).

Abstract
Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is a frequent cause of hip pain in young people and athletes. It requires a complete work-up, including X-rays, hip arthro-MRI and CT coxometry with measurement of femoral torsion. The surgical management of CFA must be adapted to the morphological anomalies of the femur (cam), acetabulum (pincer) and femoral torsional disorders. Most CFA can be treated by hip arthroscopy, with correction of the cam and suture of the labrum. Some CFA with a bulky or posterior cam require surgical hip dislocation. A femoral rotation or derotation osteotomy can correct an associated torsional disorder. In cases of marked retroversion of the acetabulum, anteverting periacetabular osteotomy can reorient the acetabulum.

Abstract
PURPOSE Bone quality of non-ambulatory patients with cerebral palsy (CP) is a matter of concern for proximal femoral varus derotational osteotomies (VDRO). Locking plates (LCP) have been designed to compensate this biological downfall. Little data exist comparing the LCP with the conventional femoral blade plate. METHODS We retrospectively studied 32 patients submitted to VDRO (40 hips), operated with blade plates or LCP. Groups were matched, and the minimal follow-up was 36 months. Clinical (age at surgery, sex, GMFCS class, CP patterns) and radiological characteristics (neck shaft angle [NSA], acetabular index [AI], Reimers migration index [MP] and time until bone healing), as well as postoperative complications and the cost of treatment, were evaluated. RESULTS Preoperative clinical characteristics and radiographic measurements were comparable, except for a higher AI in the BP group (p < 0.01). Mean follow-up was longer in the LCP group (57.35 vs 34.6 months). Mean NSA, AI and MP had comparable correction with surgery (p < 0.01). At final follow-up, dislocation recurrence speed was higher in BP group although not statistically significant (0.56% vs 0.35%/month; p = 0.29). The complication rate was similar in both groups (p > 0.05). Finally, the cost of the treatment was 62% higher in the LCP group (p = 0.01). CONCLUSION Our cohorts showed LCP or BP equivalence clinically and radiographically in mid-term follow-up, with the former increasing the cost of treatment by a mean of 62%. This may raise a question on the real necessity of locked implants for these operations. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III-Retrospective comparative study.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Surveillance programs aimed at monitoring hip displacement in patients with cerebral palsy have been demonstrated to decrease the incidence of hip dislocations and properly time surgical intervention, ultimately improving patient outcomes. The objective of this study was to determine whether the implementation of a hip screening to surveillance program at a tertiary academic teaching hospital in 2017 increased the frequency of radiographic evaluations and changed the timing of surgical intervention. METHODS A total of 592 patients with cerebral palsy were identified, and 468 of these patients had initial radiograph date data available. In this analysis, 246 patients with initial radiograph dates after 2012 were included. The study population was divided into two groups based on the initial radiograph date, 2012 to 2016 versus 2017 to 2022. One hundred sixty patients (65%) were in the 2012 to 2016 group, and 86 (35%) were in the 2017 to 2022 group. Statistical analysis was conducted using various techniques, such as two-sample Student t-test, Mann-Whitney U test, chi square/Fisher exact test, and multivariable linear regression analysis. RESULTS The average number of radiographs per year in the 2017 to 2022 group was 0.11 (95% CI: 0.02, 0.20, P = 0.017) higher than the 2012 to 2016 group. After adjusting for confounders using multivariable linear regression analysis, this difference was even larger (difference 0.16, 95% CI: 0.06, 0.25, P = 0.001). The surgical intervention rate was significantly lower in the 2017 to 2022 group compared with the 2012 to 2016 group (12.9% versus 40.6%, P < 0.001). DISCUSSION The results of this study suggest that the implementation of a hip screening to surveillance program results in more frequent radiographic evaluations and possibly a reduced need for surgical intervention from 2017 to 2022. In the 2012 to 2016 group, more surgical interventions were performed likely because of the lack of any hip surveillance or screening program in place.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Spino-pelvic orientation may affect dislocation risk following total hip arthroplasty (THA). It can be measured on lateral lumbo-pelvic radiographs. The sacro-femoro-pubic (SFP) angle, measured on an antero-posterior (AP) pelvis radiograph, is a reliable proxy for pelvic tilt, a measurement of spino-pelvic orientation measured on a lateral lumbo-pelvic radiograph. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between SFP angle and dislocation following THA. METHODS An Institutional Review Board-approved retrospective case-control study was conducted at a single academic center. We matched 71 dislocators (cases) to 71 nondislocators (controls) following THA performed by 1 of 10 surgeons between September 2001 and December 2010. Two authors (readers) independently calculated SFP angle from single preoperative AP pelvis radiographs. Readers were blinded to cases and controls. Conditional logistic regressions were used to identify factors differentiating cases and controls. RESULTS The data did not show a clinically relevant or statistically significant difference in SFP angles after adjusting for gender, American Society of Anesthesiologists classification, prosthetic head size, age at time of THA, measurement laterality, and surgeon. CONCLUSION We did not find an association between preoperative SFP angle and dislocation following THA in our cohort. Based on our data, SFP angle as measured on a single AP pelvis radiograph should not be used to assess dislocation risk prior to THA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hip displacement in children with cerebral palsy (CP) is monitored by measuring migration percentage on anteroposterior pelvis radiographs. However, proper positioning for radiography in children with spasticity is difficult. The reliability and accuracy of migration percentage as a function of patient positioning is unknown. OBJECTIVE To determine the effects of patient positioning on migration percentage measurements in children with CP. MATERIALS AND METHODS We identified children with CP (≤18-year-old) with pelvis CT and anteroposterior pelvis radiograph obtained <6 months apart (10/2018-11/2021). Digitally reconstructed radiographs were generated from each pelvis CT, to simulate nine different patient positions: neutral; 10° and 20° lordosis and kyphosis; and 10° and 20° right rotation and left rotation. Two radiologists measured migration percentages from the simulated and real pelvis radiographs. We used Spearman's rho to assess inter-rater reliability, and Wilcoxon signed rank test to determine statistical significance. RESULTS We studied sixty-three children (male=41; median age=8 years; range=4-18 years). The two radiologists' migration percentage measurements were highly correlated with each other across all simulated and real radiographs (Spearman's rho=0.86-0.99, P<0.01). For both readers and hips, migration percentages measured from real radiographs were significantly different from those measured from neutral simulated radiographs (P<0.01), with median absolute difference=5-6 percentage points (PP) and interquartile range (IQR)=9-12 PP. When comparing migration percentage measurements from neutral simulated radiographs to those in kyphosis/lordosis and right/left rotations, median absolute differences were 2-4 PP (IQR=3-8 PP) and 4-15 PP (IQR=6-17 PP), respectively. CONCLUSION Inter-rater reliability of measured migration percentages is high, but accuracy decreases with patient positional changes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Traumatic hip dislocation with ipsilateral femoral neck fracture, intertrochanteric fracture and acetabular fracture is a rare and serious injury that occurs mostly in young patients and after high-energy trauma. The treatment of these injuries is a major challenge for orthopedic surgeons; it can have devastating consequences if not treated properly, including avascular necrosis of the femoral head and traumatic osteoarthritis of the hip. In previous case reports only internal fixation of femoral neck fracture was performed without revascularisation and there was a lack of long-term follow-up results. In this report, we fixed the fracture revascularised the patient, and obtained good prognostic results at up to 20 months of follow-up. CASE PRESENTATION Here, we report an 18-year-old patient with systemic polytrauma resulting from a car accident. The trauma included ipsilateral posterior hip dislocation, acetabular fracture, femoral intertrochanteric fracture, and femoral neck fracture. In addition, the patient also had an ipsilateral open tibiofibula fracture. We chose the surgical treatment of a proximal femoral locking compression plate (PFLCP), femoral quadratus bone flap graft, and cannulated compression screw to treat the proximal femoral fracture. The patient was followed up for nearly 20 months; the range of motion of his hip was close to normal, and his hip function was good. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS Traumatic hip dislocation with ipsilateral femoral neck fracture, intertrochanteric fracture and acetabular fracture is a rare and serious injury, and surgical intervention is often needed. Because of the high risk of femoral head necrosis in such complex injuries, it is very important to protect/restore the blood supply of the femoral head during surgery. Therefore, in younger patients, we believe that the use of a quadratus femoris bone flap graft and PFLCP is an acceptable treatment for this severe injury. We discuss the management of this rare case and review the current literature to provide the best evidence-based recommendations for this injury pattern. We conclude that for patients with complex ipsilateral proximal femoral and acetabular fractures combined with hip dislocation, the key to surgical treatment, in addition to anatomic reduction and good fixation, is the primary reconstruction of the femoral head blood supply.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis radiographic screening will often include the hips. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the prevalence of hip dysplasia by lateral center edge angle (LCEA) on scoliosis radiographs in patients presenting with severe range (>45 deg) idiopathic curves. METHODS We reviewed 200 consecutive patients (400 hips) with idiopathic scoliosis with major coronal curves ≥45 degrees between October 2009 and October 2022. The presenting scoliosis radiograph PA were reviewed for the following variables: major coronal curve direction, coronal balance, and lateral center edge angles. An LCEA value ≤18 was considered dysplastic. To assess potential measurement variability related to parallax of the scoliosis radiographs, the intermodality intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) was measured from a subset of 20 hip LCEA values from patients with both scoliosis and pelvis radiographs. RESULTS A total of 200 patients [mean age: 13.6 (1.8) years; Female: 79%] were reviewed. The mean major curve (SD) was 58.6 degrees (11.4 deg). Overall 19% (37/200) patients or 11% (43/400) of hips had hip dysplasia. Of the dysplastic hips, 16% (6/43, P <0.001) were bilateral and 57% (21/43, P =0.04) were right sided. There was no association between dysplastic hip laterality and ipsilateral or contralateral coronal balance ( P =0.26) or curve direction ( P =0.49). The interobserver ICC for assessment of LCEA on scoliosis radiographs was 0.85, and the intermodality ICC between pelvic and scoliosis radiographs was 0.78. CONCLUSION Hip dysplasia was present in 19% of patients presenting with large major curves, and many of these patients had right sided hip dysplasia. There was no association between hip dysplasia laterality and the patient's major curve direction or coronal balance. There was good intermodality reliability (ICC=0.78) between LCEA values in patients who had both scoliosis and pelvis radiographs, and good inter-rater reliability between raters. Radiographic interpretation of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis should focus not only on the description of the curve and ruling out underlying segmentation anomalies but should also include critical assessment of the hips to exclude co-existing hip dysplasia.

Abstract
Pelvic tilt is thought to be a compensatory mechanism in hip pathology, specifically in patients with femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) and hip dysplasia. This study investigated the relationship between preoperative pelvic tilt and postoperative outcomes in patients undergoing hip preservation surgery for FAIS or hip dysplasia. We reviewed a prospective hip preservation database for demographic, radiographic, and outcome data for 89 patients who underwent hip preservation surgery with a primary diagnosis of FAIS or dysplasia from 2016 to 2020. Pelvic tilt was assessed on the standing anteroposterior radiograph with the pubic symphysis to sacroiliac joint (PS-SI) distance measurement. The International Hip Outcome Tool 12 (iHOT-12), Hip Outcome Score, Harris Hip Score, UCLA activity score, and European Quality of Life-Visual Analog Scale were used to assess hip function and pain preoperatively and postoperatively. The mean pelvic tilt (PS-SI distance) was 86.4±18.3 mm for the FAIS group and 96.2±15.1 mm for the dysplasia group. The statistical analysis demonstrated a positive relationship between pelvic tilt and change in iHOT-12 score (rs=0.262, P=.019) for all 89 patients with hip pathology and, separately, a trend toward significance for the 42 patients with FAIS (rs=0.330, P=.056). No other significant relationships were observed. The improvement in iHOT-12 score was greater for patients with more anterior tilt and less for patients with posterior pelvic tilt, regardless of underlying hip etiology. These results provide intriguing insights into an initial investigation on pelvic tilt in patients undergoing hip preservation surgery. Further investigation is necessary to assess pelvic tilt preoperatively and postoperatively, spinal parameters, and longer-term outcomes. [Orthopedics. 2023;46(6):e341-e346.].

Abstract
BACKGROUND Radiographic evaluation plays an important role in detecting and grading hip dysplasia. Acetabular sector angles (ASAs) measure the degree of femoral head coverage provided by the acetabulum on computed tomographic (CT) scans. In this study, we aimed to determine ASA values at different axial levels in a control cohort with asymptomatic, high-functioning hips without underlying hip pathology and a study group with symptomatic, dysplastic hips that underwent periacetabular osteotomy (PAO), thereby defining the ASA thresholds for hip dysplasia. METHODS This was a cross-sectional study evaluating a control group of 51 patients (102 hips) and a study group of 66 patients (72 hips). The control group was high-functioning and asymptomatic, with an Oxford Hip Score of >43, did not have osteoarthritis (Tönnis grade ≤1), underwent a pelvic CT scan, had a mean age (and standard deviation) of 52.1 ± 5.5 years, and was 52.9% female. The study group had symptomatic hip dysplasia treated with PAO, had a mean age of 29.5 ± 7.3 years, and 83.3% was female. Anterior ASA (AASA) and posterior ASA (PASA) were measured at 3 axial CT levels to determine equatorial, intermediate, and proximal ASA. The thresholds for dysplasia were determined using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis, including the area under the curve (AUC). RESULTS Patients with dysplasia had significantly smaller ASAs compared with the control group; the differences were most pronounced for proximal AASAs and proximal and intermediate PASAs. The control group had a mean proximal PASA of 162° ± 17°, yielding a threshold for dysplasia of 137° (AUC, 0.908). The mean intermediate PASA for the control group was 117° ± 11°, yielding a threshold of 107° (AUC, 0.904). The threshold for anterior dysplasia was 133° for proximal AASA (AUC, 0.859) and 57° for equatorial AASA (AUC, 0.868). The threshold for posterior dysplasia was 102° for intermediate PASA (AUC, 0.933). CONCLUSIONS Measurement of ASA is a reliable tool to identify focal acetabular deficiency with high accuracy, aiding diagnosis and management. A proximal PASA of <137° or an intermediate PASA of <107° should alert clinicians to the presence of dysplasia. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Diagnostic Level III .

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Reported cases of inferior dislocation in the literature are found under several names (inferior, anteroinferior, obturator, or erecta), which may be source of confusion. The purpose of this comprehensive review of the literature is to collect as many cases of inferior dislocation as possible to determine better therapeutic strategies, outcome after reduction, complications, and prognostic factors. METHODS In April 2020, a literature search was performed in Pubmed, Medline, Scopus, Cochrane, and Embase databases. The MeSH keywords were "OBTURATOR DISLOCATION HIP" or "ANTERIOR DISLOCATION HIP" or "INFERIOR DISLOCATION HIP." Authors independently selected articles that met the selection criteria, with no time limit. RESULTS Out of the 97 articles selected, there were 119 cases of primary inferior hip dislocations. This review of the literature has allowed us to differentiate 3 radiographic subtypes of inferior dislocations, which correspond to 3 different anatomical positions of the femoral head: "obturator" dislocation, "proximal anterior-inferior" dislocation, and "distal anterior-inferior" dislocation. Our subtype classification yielded 39 obturator subtype inferior dislocations (32.8%), 66 proximal anteroinferior subtypes (55.4%), and 14 distal anteroinferior (11.8%). The obturator subtype is at risk of reduction failure and femoral neck fracture during the reduction manoeuver. CONCLUSIONS Our study identified 3 subtypes with different prognosis, with obturator and distal anteroinferior dislocations having a poorer prognosis because of their pre- and post-reduction complications. We were unable to determine the correct manoeuver to reduce inferior dislocations without taking the risk of femoral neck fracture, but each of these subtypes may require a different manoeuver.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION After pelvic osteotomy for the treatment of symptomatic hip dysplasia, the longevity of the hip joint can be compromised by acetabular overcorrection. This iatrogenic pincer-type deformity is considered to be one of the major risk factors for persistent pain and progressing osteoarthritis. There is evidence that acetabula in the borderline range, defined by a lateral center edge angle (LCEA) between 18° and 25°, are more delicate to be orientated physiologically. The aim of this study was to assess the quality of acetabular orientation by triple pelvic osteotomy (TPO), established by Tönnis and Kalchschmidt, especially with respect to acetabular overcorrection. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective examination on 368 consecutive hips treated with TPOs was conducted. On the preoperative pelvic radiograph and the radiographic control 5 days after surgery, LCEA, acetabular index (AI), and anterior (AWI) and posterior wall index (PWI) were measured. According to the above-mentioned definition, the hips were divided into a borderline (n = 196) and a dysplastic (n = 172) group. Acetabular overcorrection was defined as when LCEA exceeded 35°, AI was below 0° and AWI exceeded 0.60, postoperatively. The postoperative occurrence of a relevant femoroacetabular impingement was correlated to these thresholds. Statistics comprised a priori power analysis, correlation analyses and receiver operating characteristics (ROC). RESULTS In the borderline group, in 64 hips (32.7%), LCEA and AI indicated lateral overcorrection. In the dysplastic group, in 14 hips (8.1%), solely AI indicated overcorrection. In none of the hips, relevant anterior overcorrection was detected since AWI never exceeded 0.60. Chi-square test demonstrated a significant correlation between the occurrence of a postoperative femoroacetabular impingement and LCEA exceeding 35°, as well as AI below 0° (p < 0.001, resp.). Bravais-Pearson's analysis showed a significant correlation between the pre- and postoperative values of all parameters in the borderline and the dysplasia group (p < 0.001). Thus, ROC analysis could be performed and provided preoperative cutoff values for LCEA (23°) and AI (12.5°), hinting at postoperative overcorrection. CONCLUSION The comparison of radiographic parameters after TPO showed a considerably greater percentage of laterally overcorrected acetabula in the borderline hips than in the dysplastic hips. According to the wall indices, anterior overcorrection was not observed. ROC analysis anticipated unfavorable lateral overcorrection when preoperative LCEA was above 23° and AI below 12.5°. These findings should sensitize the surgeon to the delicate acetabular correction in borderline dysplastic hips.

Abstract
Dysplasia epiphysealis hemimelica (DEH), also known as Trevor disease, is a rare pathologic proliferation of cartilage with unknown etiology creating cartilaginous osteochondroma exostoses intra-articularly or juxta-articularly. Herein, we reviewed the literature about acetabular osteochondroma in children and report a case of a 9-year-old boy who presented to the orthopaedic clinic with complaints of gait disturbance, right hip discomfort, and with increasing severity and frequency of hip subluxation episodes over the course of a year. Imaging studies revealed dysplasia of the right hip with subluxation secondary to acetabular lesion. The patient underwent surgical hip dislocation to facilitate surgical excision of the lesion and reduce hip, and pathology confirmed osteochondroma with chondromatosis. We report the early follow-up for this patient and discuss the value of surgical hip dislocation to manage intra-articular bone or cartilage lesions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In addition to the clinical exam, several quantitative measurement tools are performed on pelvic radiographs in the assessment of adolescent hip dysplasia at most dedicated pediatric hip preservation clinics, with the most commonly used measurement called the lateral center edge angle (LCEA). However, most pediatric radiologists do not use these quantitative measuring tools and instead make the diagnosis of adolescent hip dysplasia based on subjective review. OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study is to determine the additive value of a measurement-based diagnosis of adolescent hip dysplasia using LCEA versus subjective radiographic interpretation by pediatric radiologists. METHODS A review of pelvic radiographs for the binomial diagnosis of hip dysplasia was performed by four pediatric radiologists (two general, two musculoskeletal). The review included 97 pelvic AP radiographs (mean age 14.4 years [range 10-20 years], 81% female) for a total of 194 hips (58 cases of adolescent hip dysplasia and 136 normal) all of whom were evaluated in a tertiary care pediatric subspecialty hip preservation clinic. Subjective radiographic interpretation of each hip for a binomial diagnosis of hip dysplasia was performed. 2 weeks later and without knowledge of the subjective radiographic interpretation results, the same review was performed with LCEA measurement and a diagnosis of hip dysplasia made when LCEA angles were under 18 degrees. A comparison of sensitivity/specificity between methods per reader was conducted. A comparison of accuracy between methods for all readers combined was performed. RESULTS For all four reviewers, the sensitivity of subjective versus LCEA measurement-based diagnosis of hip dysplasia was 54-67% (average 58%) versus 64-72% (average 67%), respectively, and specificity was 87-95% (average 90%) versus 89-94% (average 92%), respectively. All four readers demonstrated an intra-reader trend for improvement in the diagnosis of adolescent hip dysplasia after the addition of LCEA measurements but was only statistically significant in one of the four readers. The combined accuracy of all four readers for subjective and LCEA measurement-based interpretation was 81% and 85%, respectively with p = 0.006. CONCLUSION Compared with subjective interpretation, LCEA measurements demonstrate increased diagnostic accuracy amongst pediatric radiologists for the correct diagnosis of adolescent hip dysplasia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND After the successful reduction of developmental dysplasia of the hip, residual hip dysplasia may persist and lead to early osteoarthritis. Femoral and/or acetabular osteotomy has been used to address this problem. The purpose of this study is to determine the indication of femoral versus combined femoral-acetabular osteotomy in the management of residual hip dysplasia. METHODS Fifty-five patients with unilateral dislocated-type dysplasia of the hip, who had residual hip dysplasia after reduction, underwent femoral osteotomy with or without acetabular osteotomy before 8 years of age, and were followed for more than 2 years and over 8 years of age, were the subjects of this retrospective study. Twenty-eight patients underwent femoral osteotomy only at a median age of 34 months (group F), and 27 underwent combined femoral-Dega osteotomy at a median age of 49 months (group C). Seventeen patients in group F and 4 in group C had an additional osteotomy due to persistent hip dysplasia. Acetabular index (AI), lateral center-edge angle, and center-head distance difference were measured on serial radiographs. The z-value of AI (Z AI ) was calculated. At the latest follow-up, patients in group F with Severin I/II who did not have an additional osteotomy were considered satisfactory, and patients with Severin III/IV or those who had an additional osteotomy were considered unsatisfactory. Preoperative variables were tested for the difference between satisfactory and unsatisfactory cases. Receiver operating characteristic analysis was performed to delineate a cutoff value of a significant parameter dividing the outcome. RESULTS AI and Z AI before index osteotomy were significant parameters predicting a satisfactory outcome in group F. Receiver operating characteristic analysis returned a cutoff value of Z AI 2.6 (Area Under the Curve=0.86, P =0.001). Eight of 12 cases (66.7%) with Z AI <2.6 in group F achieved a satisfactory outcome, whereas only 2 of 14 cases with Z AI ≥2.6 in group F did ( P =0.02). CONCLUSION Z AI 2.6 may serve as a threshold to combine acetabular osteotomy with femoral osteotomy in the management of residual hip dysplasia before 8 years of age.

Abstract
This study aimed to clarify the clinical utility of the sourcil roundness index (SRI), a novel index for quantifying the asphericity of the acetabular concavity, by determining (1) the difference in the SRI between dysplastic and normal hips and (2) the correlation between the SRI and radiographic parameters of hip dysplasia. We reviewed standing anteroposterior pelvic radiographs of 109 dysplastic and 40 normal hips. The SRI was determined as the ratio of the distance from the medial edge of the sourcil to the most concave point of the acetabular sourcil (A) to the distance from the medial to the lateral edge of the sourcil (B). The formula for SRI is (A/B) × 100-50 (%), with an SRI of 0% indicating a perfectly spherical acetabulum, and higher SRI values indicating a more aspherical shape. The median SRI was greater in patients with hip dysplasia than in normal hips (5.9% vs. - 1.4%; p < 0.001). Furthermore, the median SRI was greater in the severe dysplasia subgroup (18.9%) than in the moderate (3.5%) and borderline-to-mild (- 1.3%) dysplasia subgroups (p < 0.05). Quantification of acetabular concavity asphericity by the SRI showed that dysplastic hips had a more lateral acetabular concave point than normal hips, and that the severity of hip dysplasia had an effect on the acetabular concavity asphericity.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this retrospective study was to examine the clinical outcomes and complications of proximal femur reconstruction (PFR) combined with total hip arthroplasty (THA) in patients with high hip dislocation secondary to septic arthritis (SA). METHODS Between September 2016 to September 2021, we performed a series of 15 consecutive PFR combined with THA on patients with high dislocation of the hip secondary to SA, of these,12 hips were reviewed retrospectively, with a mean follow-up of 2.5 years (range, 1.5-6 years). The mean age of the patients at the time of surgery was 52 years (range, 40-70 years). RESULTS All patients were followed up. At 1-year postoperative follow-up, the median HHS increased from 32.50 preoperatively to 79.50 postoperatively. The median VAS decreased from 7 before surgery to 2 at 1 year after surgery. The median LLD reduced from 45 mm preoperatively to 8 mm at 1 year after surgery. The mean operative time 125 ± 15 min (range 103-195 min). Mean estimated blood loss was500 ± 105ml (range 450-870 ml). Mean hospital days 9.5 days (range 6-15 days). Two patients developed nerve injuries that improved after nutritional nerve treatment. One patient had recurrent postoperative dislocation and underwent reoperation, with no recurrence dislocation during the follow-up. There were no cases of prosthesis loosening during the follow-up period. One patient developed acute postoperative periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) that was treated with Debridement, Antibiotics and Implant Retention (DAIR) plus anti-infective therapy, with no recurrence during 2 years of follow-up. CONCLUSION This study indicates PFR combined with THA shows promise as a technique to manage high hip dislocation secondary to SA, improving early outcomes related to pain, function, and limb length discrepancy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND THA for high-riding developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is challenging in terms of length equalization. Although previous studies suggested preoperative templating on AP pelvic radiographs is insufficient in patients with unilateral high-riding DDH because of hypoplasia of the hemipelvis on the affected side and unequal femoral and tibial length on scanograms, the results were controversial. The EOS™ (EOS™ Imaging) is a biplane X-ray imaging system using slot-scanning technology. Length and alignment measurements have been shown to be accurate. We used the EOS to compare the lower limb length and alignment in patients with unilateral high-riding DDH. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES (1) Is there an overall leg length difference in patients with unilateral Crowe Type IV hip dysplasia? (2) In patients with unilateral Crowe Type IV hip dysplasia with an overall leg length difference, is there a consistent pattern of abnormalities in the femur or tibia that account for observed differences? (3) What is the impact of unilateral high-riding Crowe Type IV dysplasia on femoral neck offset and knee coronal alignment? METHODS Between March 2018 and April 2021, we treated 61 patients with THA for Crowe Type IV DDH (high-riding dislocation). EOS imaging was performed preoperatively in all patients. Eighteen percent (11 of 61) of the patients were excluded because of involvement of the opposite hip, 3% (two of 61) were excluded for neuromuscular involvement, and 13% (eight of 61) had previous surgery or fracture, leaving 40 patients for analysis in this prospective, cross-sectional study. Each patient's demographic, clinical, and radiographic information was collected with a checklist using charts, Picture Archiving and Communication System, and an EOS database. EOS-related measurements that were related to the proximal femur, limb length, and knee-related angles were recorded for both sides by two examiners. The findings of the two sides were statistically compared. RESULTS The overall limb length was not different between the dislocated and nondislocated sides (mean 725 ± 40 mm versus 722 ± 45 mm, mean difference 3 mm [95% CI -3 to 9 mm); p = 0.08). Apparent leg length was shorter on the dislocated side (mean 742 ± 44 mm versus 767 ± 52 mm, mean difference -25 mm [95% CI -32 to 3 mm]; p < 0.001). We observed that a longer tibia on the dislocated side was the only consistent pattern (mean 338 ± 19 mm versus 335 ± 20 mm, mean difference 4 [95% CI 2 to 6 mm]; p = 0.002), but there was no difference between the femur length (mean 346 ± 21 mm versus 343 ± 19 mm, mean difference 3 mm [95% CI -1 to 7]; p = 0.10). The femur of the dislocated side was longer by greater than 5 mm in 40% (16 of 40) of patients and shorter in 20% (eight of 40). The mean femoral neck offset of the involved side was shorter than that of the normal side (mean 28 ± 8 mm versus 39 ± 8 mm, mean difference -11 mm [95% CI -14 to -8 mm]; p < 0.001). There was a higher valgus alignment of the knee on the dislocated side with a decreased lateral distal femoral angle (mean 84° ± 3° versus 89° ± 3°, mean difference - 5° [95% CI -6° to -4°]; p < 0.001) and increased medial proximal tibia angle (mean 89° ± 3° versus 87° ± 3°, mean difference 1° [95% CI 0° to 2°]; p = 0.04). CONCLUSION A consistent pattern of anatomic alteration on the contralateral side does not exist in Crowe Type IV hips except for the length of the tibia. All parameters of the limb length could be shorter, equal to, or longer on the dislocated side. Given this unpredictability, AP pelvis radiographs are not sufficient for preoperative planning, and individualized preoperative planning using full-length images of the lower limbs should be performed before arthroplasty in Crowe Type IV hips.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite efforts to mitigate possible modifiable risk factors, dislocations following hemiarthroplasty for hip fracture still occur, with reported incidence rates ranging from 1.5 to 11%. The aim of this study was to investigate whether acetabular dysplasia is a significant contributing factor to dislocation, and since non-modifiable, whether it should affect patient selection for this treatment option. METHODS This is a multicentre nested case-control study of patients treated at 2 separate centres over a 10-year period from January 2011 to December 2020. All cases of hemiarthroplasty dislocation following hip fracture were identified from local databases, and 4 random controls were selected for every case. Tönnis angle (TA) and Acetabular-depth-ratio (ADR) was measured on the injured side using AP pelvis radiographs. Patients with TA > 10° and/or ADR < 250 were considered to have abnormal acetabular morphology. RESULTS 35 cases of dislocation were identified and 140 random controls were selected. Cases of dislocation had a larger mean TA (8.8° vs. 5.5°, p < 0.001) and lower mean ADR (254 vs. 289, p < 0.001) than controls. 20 out of 35 (57%) cases were considered to have abnormal acetabular morphology, compared to 19 out of 140 (14%) controls. The odds of dislocation is 8.5 times greater (odds ratio = 8.49, 95%CI = 3.73, 19.39) in patients with abnormal TA and/or ADR. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrates that TA > 10° and ADR < 250 are useful criteria to identify patients at greater risk of hip hemiarthroplasty dislocation due to acetabular dysplasia. Special consideration to preoperative planning should be taken in these patients. Future research should focus on methods to minimise risk in this subset of patients, including evaluating total hip arthroplasty with dual mobility component vs hemiarthroplasty.

What Is the Risk of Dislocation and Revision in Proximal Femoral Replacement with Dual-mobility Articulation After Two-stage Revision for Periprosthetic Hip Infection?

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dislocation is a major complication of revision THA after two-stage exchange for periprosthetic joint infection (PJI). The likelihood of dislocation can be particularly high if megaprosthetic proximal femoral replacement (PFR) has been performed during a second-stage reimplantation. Dual-mobility acetabular components are an established way of reducing the instability risk in revision THA; however, the likelihood of dislocation for dual-mobility reconstructions in the setting of a two-stage PFR has not been studied systematically, although patients with these reconstructions might be at an increased risk. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES (1) What is the risk of dislocation and revision for dislocation in patients who underwent PFR with a dual-mobility acetabular component as part of two-stage exchange for hip PJI? (2) What is the risk of all-cause implant revision and what other procedures were performed (apart from revision for a dislocation) in these patients? (3) What potential patient-related and procedure-related factors are associated with dislocation? METHODS This was a retrospective study from a single academic center including procedures performed between 2010 and 2017. During the study period, 220 patients underwent two-stage revision for chronic hip PJI. Two-stage revision was the approach of choice for chronic infections, and we did not perform single-stage revisions for this indication during the study period. Thirty-three percent (73 of 220) of patients underwent second-stage reconstruction with a single-design, modular, megaprosthetic PFR because of femoral bone loss, using a cemented stem. A cemented dual-mobility cup was the approach of choice for acetabular reconstruction in the presence of a PFR; however, 4% (three of 73) were reconstructed with a bipolar hemiarthroplasty to salvage an infected saddle prosthesis, leaving 70 patients with a dual-mobility acetabular component and a PFR (84% [59 of 70]) or total femoral replacement (16% [11 of 70]). We used two similar designs of an unconstrained cemented dual-mobility cup during the study period. The median (interquartile range) patient age was 73 years (63 to 79 years), and 60% (42 of 70) of patients were women. The mean follow-up period was 50 ± 25 months with a minimum follow-up of 24 months for patients who did not undergo revision surgery or died (during the study period, 10% [seven of 70] died before 2 years). We recorded patient-related and surgery-related details from the electronic patient records and investigated all revision procedures performed until December 2021. Patients who underwent closed reduction for dislocation were included. Radiographic measurements of cup positioning were performed using supine AP radiographs obtained within the first 2 weeks after surgery using an established digital method. We calculated the risk for revision and dislocation using a competing-risk analysis with death as a competing event, providing 95% confidence intervals. Differences in dislocation and revision risks were assessed with Fine and Gray models providing subhazard ratios. All p values were two sided and the p value for significance was set at 0.05. RESULTS The risk of dislocation (using a competing-risks survivorship estimator) was 17% (95% CI 9% to 32%) at 5 years, and the risk of revision for dislocation was 12% (95% CI 5% to 24%) at 5 years among patients treated with dual-mobility acetabular components as part of a two-stage revision for PJI of the hip. The risk of all-cause implant revision (using a competing-risk estimator, except for dislocation) was 20% (95% CI 12% to 33%) after 5 years. Twenty-three percent (16 of 70) of patients underwent revision surgery for reinfection and 3% (two of 70) of patients underwent stem exchange for a traumatic periprosthetic fracture. No patients underwent revision for aseptic loosening. We found no differences in patient-related and procedure-related factors or acetabular component positioning for patients with dislocation with the numbers available; however, patients with total femoral replacements had a higher likelihood of dislocation (subhazard ratio 3.9 [95% CI 1.1 to 13.3]; p = 0.03) and revision for a dislocation (subhazard ratio 4.4 [95% CI 1 to 18.5]; p = 0.04) than those who received PFR. CONCLUSION Although dual-mobility bearings might be an intuitive potential choice to reduce the dislocation risk in revision THA, there is a considerable dislocation risk for PFR after two-stage surgery for PJI, particularly in patients with total femoral replacements. Although the use of an additional constraint might appear tempting, published results vary tremendously, and future studies should compare the performance of tripolar constrained implants to that of unconstrained dual-mobility cups in patients with PFR to reduce the risk of instability. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III, therapeutic study.

Abstract
Children with cerebral palsy (CP) and neuromuscular hip dysplasia (NMHD) frequently require hip reconstruction including femoral and pelvic osteotomies. Outcomes and complications in CP patients with NMHD who underwent varying degrees of hip reconstruction surgeries were examined. Ninety-nine patients with a diagnosis of CP who underwent surgical management of NMHD over a 15-year period (2005-2020) were reviewed. Three patient cohorts with varying degrees of surgery were analyzed including: (1) unilateral femoral osteotomy with pelvic osteotomy; (2) bilateral femoral osteotomy with unilateral pelvic osteotomy; and (3) simultaneous bilateral femoral osteotomy and bilateral pelvic osteotomy. Data points included operative (OR) time, length of stay (LOS), estimated blood loss (EBL), and transfusion requirement. Complications during the perioperative and postoperative periods were identified and graded by severity. Increased EBL, need for transfusion, OR time, and LOS were observed more frequently in patients undergoing bilateral reconstruction. Complication rates were high for all three cohorts, with 87% of cases in the bilateral pelvic osteotomy cohort experiencing ≥1 complication. However, 90% of these were considered grade I or II and required no or minimal intervention. The average postoperative migration index at final follow-up for treated hips was significantly less in bilateral pelvic osteotomy cases. Patients with CP and bilateral NMHD can be safely managed with bilateral simultaneous comprehensive reconstruction. The data presented in this study can help both surgeons and families anticipate a more accurate postoperative course. Level of evidence: III.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Traumatic hip dislocations are very rare in childhood and adolescence. The aim of this multi-centre study is to analyse the current epidemiology and injury morphology of a large number of traumatic hip dislocations in children. This can provide a better understanding of childhood hip dislocations and contribute to the development of a therapeutic approach in order to prevent long-term impacts. METHODOLOGY This retrospective, anonymised multi-centre study included patients, aged up to 17 years, with acute traumatic hip dislocations and open growth plates. The patients came from 16 German hospitals. Exclusion criteria included insufficient data, a positive history of hip dysplasia, or an association with syndromal, neurological or connective tissue diseases predisposing to hip dislocation. An analysis was carried out on the patients' anthropometric data and scans (X-ray, MRI, CT), which were collected between 1979 and 2021. Gender, age at the time of dislocation, associated fractures, mechanism of injury, initial treatment including time between dislocation and reduction, method of reduction, treatment algorithm following reduction and all documented complications and concomitant injuries were evaluated. RESULTS Seventy-six patients met the inclusion criteria. There were two age peaks at 4-8 years and 11-15 years. There was an increased incidence of girls in the under-eight age group, who had mild trauma, and in the group of over-eights there were more boys, who had moderate and severe trauma. Dorsal dislocation occurred in 89.9% of cases. Mono-injuries dominated across all age groups. Concomitant injuries rarely occurred before the age of eight; however, they increased with increasing ossification of the acetabulum and appeared as avulsion injuries in 32% of 11-15-year-olds. Of the 76 patients, 4 underwent a spontaneous, 67 a closed and 5 a primary open reduction. A reduction was performed within 6 h on 84% of the children; however, in around 10% of cases a reduction was not performed until after 24 h. Concomitant injuries needing intervention were identified in 34 children following reduction. Complications included nerve irritation in the form of sensitivity disorders (n = 6) as well as avascular necrosis (AVN) of the femoral head in 15.8% of the patients (n = 12). CONCLUSIONS Traumatic hip dislocations are rare in childhood and adolescence and have high complication rates. The most severe complication, femoral head necrosis, occurred in 16% of cases. Minor injuries, especially in younger children, are enough to cause a dislocation. Posterior dislocation was more frequent and primarily occurred as a mono-injury; however, concomitant injuries must be considered with increasing age. Children continue to experience delayed reductions. The length of time until reduction, age and the severity of the concomitant injury play a role in the development of femoral head necrosis; however, this topic requires additional investigation.

Abstract
CASE A 37-year-old man with a right obturator foramen hip dislocation underwent closed reduction under spinal anesthesia with the use of a fracture traction table. CONCLUSION This novel technique provides surgeons and anesthesiologists an alternative method of treating obturator foramen hip dislocations that provides a more controlled reduction and less need for assistants.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION In hip preservation surgery, the term "borderline hip dysplasia" was used when the lateral center edge angle (LCEA), historically described by Wiberg, measured 18-25°. In recent years, several radiographic parameters have been described to assess the antero posterior coverage of the femoral head, for example, the anterior and posterior wall index (AWI and PWI). This allowed an increasingly comprehensive understanding of acetabular morphology and a questioning of the borderline definition. MATERIAL AND METHODS A retrospective review of 397 consecutive hips was performed, all treated with triple pelvic osteotomy (TPO) due to symptomatic hip dysplasia. On all preoperative pelvic radiographs with a LCEA of 18-25°, acetabular index (AI), AWI and PWI were measured. With these values, the hips were categorized into laterally, antero-laterally and postero-laterally dysplastic and stratified by gender. Intra- and interobserver correlation of the parameters was analyzed by intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). RESULTS According to LCEA, 192 hips were identified as "borderline dysplastic". Based on AWI and PWI, the categorization resulted in 116 laterally dysplastic (60.4%), 33 antero-laterally (17.2%) and 43 postero-laterally dysplastic hips (22.4%). Gender stratification revealed that male acetabula seemed to be slightly more postero-laterally deficient than female (mean PWI 0.80 vs 0.89; p = 0.017). ICC confirmed highly accurate and reproducible readings of all parameters. CONCLUSION The rather high proportion of symptomatic hips labelled borderline dysplastic suggested, that there might be substantial acetabular deficiency not recognizable by LCEA. Comprehensive deformity analysis using LCEA, AI, AWI and PWI showed, that 40% of these hips were deficient either antero-laterally or postero-laterally. Male acetabula were more deficient postero-laterally than female.

Abstract
A 2.5-year-old female Valais black-nosed sheep was referred to the University Clinic for Ruminants at the University of Veterinary Medicine Vienna, with a history of sudden lameness after shearing. The sheep showed a moderate mixed lameness of the right hind limb, the hip joint area was painful on palpation; the pelvic limb was presented as stretched as possible. After the clinical examination, the suspected diagnosis of a right-sided hip joint dislocation was made, which was subsequently confirmed radiologically (luxatio ossis femoris dextra to caudoventral and medial). An open, manual reposition was performed under general anesthesia. A toggle pin was used as a prosthetic ligament replacement for the femoral head ligament, further stabilization was achieved by means of an iliofemoral loop fixation within the fascia of the gluteal muscles.The movement possibilities of the sheep during the postoperative healing phase were severely restricted and 8 weeks of stall rest were ensured. The healing process was uncomplicated. Telephone enquiry 6 months following the surgical intervention revealed that the sheep was free of lameness, kept up with the herd, and displayed a normal general condition.The success of surgery and the use of the procedure in livestock practice is limited by the necessity of rapid intervention after the trauma has occurred, the willingness of the animal owner to bear the costs associated with the operation under general anesthesia as well as to ensure the long post-operative follow-up care with controlled restriction of movement.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The prevalence of hip dysplasia among patients with Down syndrome (DS) is higher than in the general population. We hypothesize that a relationship may exist between functional level and hip dysplasia in DS, but this has not been studied to date. The aim of this study is to evaluate whether there is a relationship between functional level and radiographic parameters of hip dysplasia or other measures. METHODS Retrospective cross-sectional comparative study of 652 patients with DS from a pediatric referral center database. Patients over 8 years of age with an anteroposterior pelvis radiograph and with no exclusion criteria were selected, totaling 132 patients (264 hips; 54.55% females; mean age 12.96 ± 2.87 y). Several radiographic parameters of the acetabulum [Sharp angle (SA), Tönnis angle (TA), Wiberg center-edge angle (W-CEA), extrusion index (EI), and acetabular retroversion signs], the proximal femur [neck shaft angle (NSA)], and joint congruence [Shenton line (SL)] were assessed. Patients were classified into 2 levels based on functional skills. A multivariate association analysis was performed between radiographic parameters and functional level. RESULTS Sixty-one patients were compatible with a functional level I and 71 with a level II. Forty-six hips were dysplastic and 60 were borderline according to the W-CEA. A statistically significant relationship was found between the categorical distribution of certain radiographic measurements of hip dysplasia (EI, SA, TA, W-CEA, SL, and classification by functional level ( P < 0.0005). A significant receiver operating characteristic curve was obtained for W-CEA with a cutt-off point at 26.4 degrees for level I (area under the curve = 0.763; P < 0.005; sensitivity = 0.800 and specificity = 0.644). There was a fairly high correlation between EI and TA (0.749; P < 0.0005), EI and W-CEA (-0.817; P < 0.0005), and TA and W-CEA (-0.748; P < 0.0005). Numerous hips showed signs of acetabular retroversion, with no significant differences found between functional levels or association with hip dysplasia measures. CONCLUSIONS The present study reveals a relationship between an increased risk of hip dysplasia and reduced functional levels in DS children older than 8 years. These findings may guide individualized clinical follow-up of hip development in DS children considering their functional level. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III, retrospective comparative study.

Abstract
Our investigation aimed to assess the reliability of the femoral head shape classification system devised by Rutz et al . and observe its application in patients with cerebral palsy (CP) at different skeletal maturity levels. Four independent observers assessed anteroposterior radiographs of the hips of 60 patients with hip dysplasia associated with non-ambulatory CP (Gross Motor Function Classification System levels IV and V) and recorded the femoral head shape radiological grading system as described by Rutz et al . Radiographs were obtained from 20 patients in each of three age groups: under 8 years, between 8 and 12 years and above 12 years old, respectively. Inter-observer reliability was assessed by comparing the measurements of four different observers. To determine the intra-observer reliability, radiographs were reassessed after a 4-week interval. Accuracy was checked by comparing these measurements with the assessment of expert consensus. Validity was checked indirectly by observing the relationship between the Rutz grade and the migration percentage. The Rutz classification system's evaluation of femoral head shape showed moderate to substantial intra- and inter-observer reliability (mean κ = 0.64 for intraobserver and mean κ = 0.5 for interobserver). Specialist assessors had slightly higher intra-observer reliability than trainee assessors. The grade of femoral head shape was significantly associated with increasing migration percentage. Rutz's classification was shown to be reliable. Once the clinical utility of this classification can be established, it has the potential for broad application for prognostication and surgical decision-making and as an essential radiographic variable in studies involving the outcomes of hip displacement in CP.

Abstract
Cerebral palsy in children, which is the result of a nonprogressing damage to the central nervous system, causes motor and posture disorders that change with age. The level of child activity correlates with the hip dislocation risk. It most often affects nonwalking patients and those with tetraparesis or oblique pelvis. The aim of the study was to assess the effectiveness and clinical value of Dega pelvic osteotomy with accompanying directional femoral bone osteotomy after minimum of 20 years from surgery of patients with cerebral palsy. The conducted research was retrospective and concerned the children operated at our Hospital. The assessment was carried out in 346 children with spastic hip during the years 1993-2000. The inclusion criteria were applied: unilateral dislocation of the hip, the observation period of at least 20 years, pelvic osteotomy by Dega method and combined with varus derotation femur osteotomy. The analysis involved fifteen patients. The follow-up period was minimum 20 years (20-27 years). The average migration percentage decreased from 88% down to 25%, and an improved range of mobility was observed in the operated joint after surgery. However, the range of mobility was again significantly reduced during the last control examination after a minimum of 20 years. In all hips, the degenerative joint disease was present. Pelvic transiliac osteotomy, according to Dega, with VDRO, ensures very effective correction of the deficit in femoral head coverage by the acetabulum in the upper, lateral and posterior parts. However, it does not prevent the development of the early degenerative disease of the joint.

Abstract
The technique of one stage procedure - open reduction, Dega transiliac with or without femoral subtrochanteric osteotomy combined with iliopsoas transfer according to Mustard - has been described for the treatment of paralytic dislocation of the hip in myelomeningocele patients. Historical series of 16 children (26 hips) operated on between 1987 and 2003 were analyzed retrospectively. There were nine boys and seven girls with upper and lower lumbar level lesions (15 with Sharrard groups 3 and 4 and one with Sharrard 2) and 20 dislocated and six subluxated hips. The mean age at operation was 5.1 years (3-12.3). Ten children were operated bilaterally. Follow-up ranged from 1 to 17 years (mean 10). Concentric reduction was achieved in 23 hips, subluxation in 1 and redislocation in 2. In one hip, acute avascular necrosis of the femoral head was visible early after operation. Immediately after the operation, most of the patients improved ambulation. After operation, 15 patients out of 16 became community ambulators. At the final follow-up, none of the patients worsened their ambulation due to operation. Open reduction and Dega transiliac osteotomy with or without subtrochanteric derotation/varus shortening osteotomy combined with iliopsoas transfer seem to be safe and valuable procedure for operative treatment of dislocated hip in myelomeningocele patients. Levels of evidence: level IV - case series.

Abstract
Periacetabular osteotomy according to Ganz (PAO) is an established technique for the surgical treatment of hip dysplasia with the aim of biomechanically optimizing the dysplastic hip joint. Through multidimensional reorientation, the deficient coverage of the femoral head can be improved and physiological values can be achieved. Until bony consolidation is reached, adequate fixation of the acetabulum in the corrected position achieved is necessary. Various fixation techniques are available for this purpose. Alternatively to screws, Kirschner wires can also be used for fixation. The different fixation techniques show comparable stability. Differences exist in the occurrence of implant-associated complications. However, there is no difference in patient satisfaction and joint-specific function.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Optimal correction of hip dysplasia via periacetabular osteotomy may reduce osteoarthritis development by reducing damaging contact stress. The objective of this study was to computationally determine if patient-specific acetabular corrections that optimize contact mechanics can improve upon contact mechanics resulting from clinically successful, surgically achieved corrections. METHODS Preoperative and postoperative hip models were retrospectively created from CT scans of 20 dysplasia patients treated with periacetabular osteotomy. A digitally extracted acetabular fragment was computationally rotated in 2-degree increments around anteroposterior and oblique axes to simulate candidate acetabular reorientations. From discrete element analysis of each patient's set of candidate reorientation models, a mechanically optimal reorientation that minimized chronic contact stress exposure and a clinically optimal reorientation that balanced improving mechanics with surgically acceptable acetabular coverage angles was selected. Radiographic coverage, contact area, peak/mean contact stress, and peak/mean chronic exposure were compared between mechanically optimal, clinically optimal, and surgically achieved orientations. FINDINGS Compared to actual surgical corrections, computationally derived mechanically/clinically optimal reorientations had a median[IQR] 13[4-16]/8[3-12] degrees and 16[6-26]/10[3-16] degrees more lateral and anterior coverage, respectively. Mechanically/clinically optimal reorientations had 212[143-353]/217[111-280] mm2 more contact area and 8.2[5.8-11.1]/6.4[4.5-9.3] MPa lower peak contact stresses than surgical corrections. Chronic metrics demonstrated similar findings (p ≤ 0.003 for all comparisons). INTERPRETATION Computationally selected orientations achieved a greater mechanical improvement than surgically achieved corrections; however, many predicted corrections would be considered acetabular over-coverage. Identifying patient-specific corrections that balance optimizing mechanics with clinical constraints will be necessary to reduce the risk of osteoarthritis progression after periacetabular osteotomy.
