MCKIBBIN INDEX AND FEMORAL VERSION NOT PREDICTIVE OF IHOT12 CHANGE AT TWO YEARS IN PATIENTS UNDERGOING ISOLATED PERIACETABULAR OSTEOTOMY

Abstract

Adult hip dysplasia AHD is a complex 3D pathology of lateral coverage, version and/or volume and is often associated with increased femoral anteversion. The Mckibbin index MI is the combination of acetabular version AV and femoral version FV and is used as a measure of anterior hip Stability/ Impingement(1). The Bernese Periacetabular osteotomy PAO is a powerful tool in treating AHD, but it does not address FV. De-rotational femoral osteotomies FO increases risk of complications, operative time and might condemn the patient to Secondary osteotomies to balance the gait. We aim to investigate the effect of MI and FV on PROMs in patients undergoing PAO only.593 PAOs identified on the Local Hip preservation registry between 01/2013 and 7/2023. PAOs for retroversion, residual Perthes and those combined with FO were excluded. Patients with no available PROMS at 2 years were excluded. Independent variables were collected from E-notes and imaging including MI and FV. A multiple linear regression analysis was performed against preoperative iHot12, and iHot12 change at 2years.The mean FV was 18.86± 12.4 SD. Mean MI was 36.07, SD 15.36. Mean preop iHot12 score was 29.83 ± 17.38 SD. Mean change in iHot12 at 2 years was+36.47 ± 28.44 SD. Females and a higher BMI were statistically correlated to a lower preoperative iHot12. A lower preop iHot12 score and a higher preop AI were correlated to a bigger change in iHot12 at 2years with statistical significance. MI and FV were not found to have a statistically significant correlation with Outcome measures,An increased Mckibbin index and femoral anteversion were not correlated with worse outcomes at two years. PAO alone in the presence of increased femoral anteversion avoids risks associated with FO which can be performed later if required.
