Abstract
The combined anteversion surgical technique has been proposed and used in clinical practice. To more objectively evaluate the feasibility of this surgical technique using combined anteversion concept for DDH patients, we studied 34 DDH patients (40 hips) in this research. Every patient underwent pelvic CT scans before and after surgery and the HHSs were recorded. Optimal range of joint motion was measured using a three-dimensional reconstruction technique and a dynamic measurement technique. The results revealed that joint function met the requirements of daily life and the range of motion was not over-limited by impingement between the prosthesis and the skeleton. Moreover, the combined anteversion was found to be the most critical parameter in this study.
