17 To obtain good mechanical use of the hip joint, the deformed head should be reshaped or replaced, the twisted femoral neck corrected, and the acetabulum made adequate and aligned to the femoral ...
Radiographs showed permeative lytic lesions in the right femoral head and surrounding right acetabulum (Fig 1). A bone scan (Fig 2) showed increased activity about the right hip. Further ...
The joint has increased mobility and laxity, within the acetabulum. External manipulations allow partial dislocation (subluxation) with some residual contact between the femoral head and acetabulum.
Once the joint capsule is exposed, it is incised from the base of the greater trochanter to 1 cm proximal to the acetabular rim. The femoral canal is then reamed and broached without dislocation. The ...
