Popis: Prosthetic joint instability is a challenging concern for a minority of total hip arthroplasty (THA) patients. Placement of the acetabular component within the traditional safe zone does not eliminate dislocation, and the relative contribution of femoral length and offset to instability risk has not been well defined. The authors compared 53 dislocated primary THAs treated against an age- and gender-matched cohort of 134 stable primary THAs. Anteroposterior and cross-table lateral radiographs were used to determine whether reconstructions met targets for acetabular inclination (30–50 degrees), acetabular anteversion (5–30 degrees), femoral length (0–9.9 mm) and femoral offset (0–9.9 mm). Statistical analysis was performed to assess univariate and multivariate relationships with an instability event; statistical significance was set using a two-sided p-value
