title: Acetabular medial wall displacement osteotomy in total hip arthroplasty: a technique to optimize the acetabular reconstruction in acetabular dysplasia.
abstract: Twenty-six patients (30 hips) who had acetabular dysplasia were operated on by circumferential acetabular medial wall displacement osteotomy to reconstruct the acetabulum during total hip arthroplasty. All patients had cementless acetabular components implanted. The average acetabular component size was 50 mm (range, 44-56 mm). Only 2 hips needed structural bone graft. The mean follow-up period was 22 months (range, 6-32 months). Harris hip score had changed from 47.31 (range, 19-69 points) to 94.69 (range, 85-100 points) postoperatively (P < .01). Using the Ranawat acetabular triangle to determine the optimal hip center of rotation, the postoperative hip biomechanical environment had been improved. Our short-term follow-up suggests this technique is reliable and reproducible and generally avoids the use of bone graft and graft site morbidity. In addition, it allows the use of standard modular cementless components in patients with acetabular dysplasia.
