Abnormal Spinopelvic Motion and Spine Deformity are Associated With Native Femoral Retroversion in the Setting of Total Hip Arthroplasty

摘要

Background: The effect of spinopelvic pathology on femoral version is unclear. This study investigated variability in native femoral anteversion in patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA) and its relationship to the patient's underlying spinopelvic pattern. Methods: A retrospective chart review was performed to include in the study all patients undergoing robot-assisted THA over a 3-year period. Native femoral version was measured for each patient using a preoperative computed tomography scan and categorized as excessive, normal, or retroverted. Additionally, a subset analysis was performed for all patients with sit-to-stand dynamic pelvic radiographs available, and cases were classified by spinopelvic pattern. Results: = .003). Conclusions: This study demonstrates that native femoral retroversion is present in a significant number of patients undergoing THA and is more common in patients with stiff spine deformities. Based on this observation, currently available spinopelvic classification systems should be modified to account for native femoral version.
