Abstract:Background
In total hip arthroplasty (THA) after failed transtrochanteric rotational osteotomy (TRO) for osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH), deformity of the proximal femur has been reported to affect stem placement. The aims of this study were to evaluate the morphological changes in the proximal femur, muscle atrophy, and soft tissue thickening in THA after TRO and the clinical outcomes.
Methods
The TRO group included 17 patients (18 hips) … Show more
