SPINOPELVIC MOBILITY IN PATIENTS WITH HIP OSTEOARTHRITIS AND TOTAL HIP ARTHROPLASTY INDICATION

ABSTRACT Introduction: Reduction of spinopelvic mobility is associated with an increased dislocation of total hip arthroplasty (THA). Objective: To assess 1) spinopelvic mobility in patients with primary hip osteoarthritis and THA indication and 2) the influence of hip flexion contracture on spinopelvic mobility. Methods: Thirty adult patients with primary hip osteoarthritis and THA indication were evaluated using radiographic parameters (pelvic incidence, pelvic tilt, sacral slope, lumbar flexibility, and spinopelvic mobility). Results: Spinopelvic mobility ranged from 6.90 a 54.50° (mean 32.79 ± 11.42) and the group of patients with hip flexion contracture had higher mobility. Spinopelvic mobility was correlated with pelvic tilt as well as with lumbar flexibility. Conclusion: Around 13.4% of patients had spinopelvic mobility under 20° , indicating reduced spinopelvic mobility and risk of THA dislocation. Level of Evidence III, Retrospective Comparative Study.
