Total Hip Arthroplasty With Subtrochanteric Osteotomy for Developmental Hip Dysplasia: A Long-term Follow-up Study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Total hip arthroplasty (THA) for developmental hip dysplasia (DDH) often requires a subtrochanteric shortening derotational osteotomy (SDO) to limit leg lengthening, mitigate risk of peripheral nerve palsy, and reduce excessive femoral anteversion. Few studies exist detailing long-term clinical outcomes and survivorship. The aim of this study is to analyze the long-term outcomes and survivorship of an SDO-THA cohort.

Methods

We retrospectively reviewed all patients who underwent cementless THA with femoral osteotomy due to Crowe I-IV DDH between 1991 and 2001. Primary outcome measures included revision surgery for any reason and functional outcome measures using modified Harris Hip scores. Secondary outcome measures included mode of implant failure and radiographi
