Upward versus downward pelvic obliquity in dysplastic hip osteoarthritis: direction-specific factors associated with residual obliquity after total hip arthroplasty

Introduction: Pelvic obliquity (PO) in dysplastic hip osteoarthritis may tilt upward (U-PO) or downward (D-PO) on the affected side. U-PO tends to persist more frequently after total hip arthroplasty (THA) than D-PO; however, the contributing factors remain unclear. This study in...
