Abstract

Introduction : Anatomy of proximal femur and acetabulum are very important in total hip replacement surgery. The objective of this study is to compare AD and Depth morphology in humans in terms of age and gender. . Multiplanar evaluation by computed tomography (CT) scan is the key to assess acetabular depth, version, and inclination.

 

Methods: In this retrospective Radiology based study, AD and Depth measurements of 100 randomly selected CT scans from patients who had came for diagnosis in  the Nearby randomly selected Secondary and Tertiary care Hospitals and Radiological Diagnostic centres The patients with surgical intervention, those with an orthopedic problem and those who had undergone acetabular dysplasia and hip arthroplasty were excluded. AD and Depth were performed unilaterally, from the left side.

 

Results: Measurement results showed that AD was 61.38 ± 3.41 mm in males & 58.25 ± 2.72 mm in females. Average depth was 19.01 ± 2.84 mm in males,& 18.27 ± 1.74 mm in females. Statistically significant difference was found between males and females in terms of AD , while no differences were found in terms of Depth. Correlation analysis results did not show a statistically significant correlation between AD and Depth (p>0.05).

 

Conclusions : The results of our study will contribute to studies about hip arthroplasty applications. In addition, we believe that a data base will be formed about this subject related with our region.
