The most common classifications for acetabular bone defects are based on radiographic two-dimensional imaging, with low reliability and reproducibility. With the rise of modern processing techniques based on 3D modelling, methodologies for the volumetric quantification of acetabular bone loss are available. Our study aims to describe a new methodology for the quantitative assessment of acetabular defects based on 3D modelling, focused on surface analysis of the integrity of the main anatomical structures of the acetabulum represented by four corresponding sectors (posterior, superior, anterior, and medial). The defect entity is measured as the area increase ratio (AIR) detected in all the sectors analyzed on three planes of view (frontal, sagittal, and axial) compared to healthy hemipelvises. The analysis was performed on 3D models from the CT-scan of six exemplary specimens with a unilateral pathological hemipelvis. The AIR between the native and the pathological hemipelvis was calculated for each sector, for a total of 48 analyses (range, +0.93–+171.35%). An AIR of >50% were found in 22/48 (45.8%) sectors and affected mostly the posterior, medial, and superior sectors (20/22, 90.9%). Qualitative analysis showed consistency between the data and the morphological features of the defects. Further studies with larger samples are needed to validate the methodology and potentially develop a new classification scheme. |
