Abstrakt: Background: During radiographic assessment of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS), upright images frequently capture the hip. The purpose of this study was to assess the prevalence of radiographic hip dysplasia on postero-anterior (PA) scoliosis radiographs, as defined as a lateral center edge angle (LCEA) ≤25 degrees.
Methods: All patients with upright PA scoliosis radiographs over a one-year study period at a single tertiary academic medical center (2020 to 2021) were included in the study. Radiographs containing the hip joints were annotated by 3 reviewers for left and right LCEA, and triradiate cartilage (TRC) status. Inter-rater reliability was determined among the 3 reviewers.
Results: Two hundred fifty patients {500 hips, 75.6% female, median age 14 [interquartile range (IQR)=3]} had PA scoliosis radiographs that captured the hip, which qualified for analysis. Seventy-four hips (14.8%) demonstrated evidence of dysplasia (LCEA ≤25 deg) in 55/250 patients (22%). The median LCEA was significantly lower in the dysplastic hip cohort (23.9 deg, IQR=4.8 deg), compared with those without dysplasia (33 deg IQR=7.3 deg; P =0.001). A higher percentage of dysplastic hip patients were female than male (72.7% vs. 27.3%). Patients with bilateral dysplasia had a similar LCEA ( 22.9 deg) [to those with unilateral dysplasia (22.9 deg left, 23.9 deg right, P =0.689)].
Conclusions: In a cohort of 250 AIS patients, 22% demonstrated evidence of hip dysplasia, as defined as an LCEA ≤2 degrees. The dysplastic patients were more likely to be female. Screening for hip symptomatology in AIS patients may be of benefit, considering the frequency of radiographic hip dysplasia in this population.
