Abstract
- Understanding the impact of pathologic spinopelvic mobility on total hip arthroplasty instability requires an appreciation of the dynamic interplay between and the spine, hip and pelvis. This complex interdependent relationship changes with position, pathology and surgical intervention. Spinal pathology may prevent normal dynamic motion leading to spinopelvic stiffness and abnormal pelvic position. Patients at high risk for pathologic spinopelvic motion and subsequent total hip arthroplasty (THA) dislocation should be assessed with a functional imaging series with lateral standing, sitting and AP standing radiographs. Common patterns of stiffness and imbalance as well as proposed surgical treatment algorithms are presented and discussed in this review. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
