Triple innominate osteotomy for acetabular dysplasia.
Fifty-six hips in 44 patients that underwent triple innominate osteotomy were reviewed. Average follow-up was 7 years (range 2-12 years). Patients were evaluated with regard to any postoperative pain and any improvement in function and as to whether they would recommend the procedure. Improvement in pain and function was considered good in 53 hips. Three hips were considered failures. Forty-two of 44 patients strongly recommended the procedure. Two patients would not recommend the procedure. In all, 94% of patients had improvement in both pain and function and recommended the operation.
