Spinopelvic Motion Evaluation in Patients Undergoing Total Hip Arthroplasty and Patient-Specific Target for Acetabular Cup Placement.

ABSTRACT: Background/Objectives: Instability is a major reason for revision after total hip arthroplasty (THA), and acetabular cup placement in the "traditional" safe zone does not protect against dislocations. Spinopelvic mobility may play a role in impingement and dislocation after THA. Personalized acetabular cup placement that incorporates spinopelvic mobility is currently lacking in the literature. Methods: The spinopelvic motion of 116 patients was evaluated during preoperative planning. All patients underwent radiological assessments with an anteroposterior pelvis radiograph in the standing and supine positions and a lateral view of the lumbar spine and pelvis in the standing and sitting positions. The pelvic incidence, pelvic tilt, sacral slope, standing anterior pelvic plane t
