Anatomical Hip Range of Motion After Implantation During Total Hip Arthroplasty With a Large Change in Pelvic Inclination

摘要

The supine functional pelvic plane is the recommended reference pelvic plane for acetabular cup planning in navigation-assisted total hip arthroplasty. However, it is unclear whether it can be used in patients with a large preoperative positional change in pelvic inclination (PC) from the supine to the standing position because it is unknown whether these patients have a different hip range of motion (ROM). We measured the anatomical hip ROM after implantation by computed tomography-based navigation in 91 patients and found it to be similar between those with a small PC (<10°) and those with a large PC (≥10°). There was no significant correlation between ROM and preoperative PC. The supine functional pelvic plane is adequate for cup planning whether the PC is small or large.
