Popis: | The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether femoral antetorsion affects the range of motion (ROM) following total hip arthroplasty (THA) using 3D dynamic analysis.Using 3D computed tomography (CT) data of 71 patients (71 hips) who underwent THA, we calculated antetorsion of the femoral neck, flexion range of motion (Flex ROM), internal rotation (Int-R) and external rotation (Ext-R). Evaluation of the relationship between antetorsion, ROM and the impingement site was performed. As for implant position, anteversion of the femoral implant was set to be the same as natural antetorsion of the femoral neck, and the acetabular component was set 45° of total anteversion in all cases.We found a significant decrease in Flex ROM and Int-R inversely proportional to femoral antetorsion. In patients with lower antetorsion, Flex ROM and Int-R decreased due to bony impingement (the anterior great trochanteric region of the femur impinges on the anteroinferior edge of the anteroinferior iliac spine). However, in Ext-R, there was no relationship between ROM and femoral antetorsion.We demonstrated that lower femoral antetorsion substantially affects Flex ROM and Int-R due to bony impingement. For these patients, consideration must be given to retaining femoral anterior offset in THA. |
