LONGITUDINAL KINEMATIC ANALYSIS OF THE HIP JOINT AFTER TOTAL HIP ARTHROPLASTY
2018
INTRODUCTIONThe purpose of this study is to elucidate longitudinal kinematic changes of the hip joint during heels-down squatting after THA.METHODS66 patients with 76 primary cementless THAs using a CT-based navigation system were investigated using fluoroscopy. An acetabular component and an anatomical femoral component were used through the mini-posterior approach with repair of the short rotators. The femoral head size was 28mm (9 hips), 32mm (12 hips), 36mm (42 hips), and 40mm (12 hips). Longitudinal evaluation was performed at 3 months, 1 year, and 2≤ years postoperatively. Successive hip motion during heels-down squatting was recorded as serial digital radiographic images in a DICOM format using a flat panel detector. The coordinate system of the acetabular and femoral components based on the neutral standing position was defined. The images of the hip joint were matched to 3D-CAD models of the components using a2D/3D registration technique. In this system, the root mean square errors of rotation wa...
