The authors performed the comparative analysis of radiographs of two groups of patients with severe dysplastic coxarthrosis who underwent total hip replacement with osteotomy of T. Paavilainen and without it. The study revealed significant differences in the results: the degree of leg lengthening and the degree of displacement of the greater trochanter with the restoration of the anatomical center of rotation using osteotomy on T Paavilainen significantly greater than with a standard prosthesis. The average limb lengthening without osteotomy was 29.1 mm, 95% confidence interval (from 24.5 to 33.6), and using osteotomy - 45.7 mm (from 41.8 to 49.6) (p 0.0001). The average displacement of the greater trochanter without osteotomy was 27.2 mm, 95% confidence interval (from 22.8 to 31.6), and with osteotomy - 61.4 mm (from 54.4 to 68.4) (p 0, 0001).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
