The anatomical characteristics of Vietnamese adult hip joint: a multiplanar reconstruction computer tomographic study

Abstract

Background. The present study evaluated some anatomical characteristics of the acetabulum and proximal femur in the hips of adult asymptomatic Vietnamese individuals. Methods. We used 32 slice computed tomographic system with a multiplanar reconstruction (MPR CT) protocol to evaluate several parameters of the acetabulum and proximal femur, including Acetabular diameter (ADi), Acetabular depth (ADe), Acetabular ratio (AR, calculated by (ADe/ADi) x100), Acetabular inclination angle (AI), Acetabular anteversion angle (AA), Centre-edge angle (CE), Femoral head diameter (FDi), Femoral neck anteversion (FA), Combine anteversion angle (CA, calculated by AA + FA), Femoral shaft-neck angle (SN), and Femoral medial offset (FO). Results. The average of parameters of ADi,

Morphological Characteristics of the Vietnamese Adult Human Acetabulum Using Multiplanar Reconstruction Computed Tomography in Total Hip Replacement Surgery

“…In our study, the average size of the acetabulum was 50.22 ± 3.5 mm, which is similar to the study by Tran Trung Dung (2019) of 50 ± 2.9 mm, both on a group of mature Vietnamese individuals. 4 The depth of the acetabulum and acetabular depth ratio in our study were 18 Baharuddin's study (2018) 6 of Malaysians, Paul's study 7 of Indians, and Arsic's study 8 of Serbians, in which no statistically significant difference was found in acetabular depth and index. The average size of the femoral head in our study was 43.54 ± 3.68 mm, which was not statistically different from Tran Trung Dung's study (2019).…”

“…The average size of the femoral head in our study was 43.54 ± 3.68 mm, which was not statistically different from Tran Trung Dung's study (2019). 4 Regarding the differences in this index between different ethnicities and genders, Edward reported in 2020 that there were statistically significant differences between ethnic groups, especially between the Chinese and white European, white American, and African American populations. 2,[9][10][11] In terms of the orientation angles of the acetabulum in space, we compared our results with those of other authors in the literature (Table 5).…”
