Role of the Anterior Center-Edge Angle on Acetabular Stress Distribution in Borderline Development Dysplastic of Hip Determined by Finite Element Analysis.

ABSTRACT: Background: The joint with hip dysplasia is more likely to develop osteoarthritis because of the higher contact pressure, especially in the socket. The lateral center-edge angle (LCEA) is the major indicator for hip dysplasia via radiography. However, the pathological conditions of LCEA angles in the range of 18°-25° are still controversial, which challenges precise diagnosis and treatment decision-making. Objective: The purpose of this study is to investigate the influence of anterior center-edge angle (ACEA) on the mechanical stress distribution of the hip joint, via finite element analysis, to provide insights into the severity of the borderline development dysplasia. Methods: From 2017 to 2019, there were 116 patients with borderline developmental dys
