Abstract EN
Hip joint dysplasia is a deformation of the articular elements (pelvic acetabulum, head of the femur, and/or ligament of the head of the femur) leading to laxity of the hip components and dislocation of the femoral head from the pelvic acetabulum.
Diagnosis is based on symptoms observed during clinical and radiological examinations.
There are two treatment options: conservative and surgical.
The classic surgical procedures are juvenile pubic symphysiodesis (JPS), triple pelvic osteotomy (TPO), total hip replacement (THR), and femoral head and neck resection (FHNE).
The aim of this experiment was to present an original technique of filling the acetabulum with a polypropylene implant, resting the femoral neck directly on the mesh.
The experiment was performed on eight sheep.
The clinical value of the new surgical technique was evaluated using clinical, radiological, and histological methods.
This technique helps decrease the loss of limb length by supporting the femoral neck on the mesh equivalent to the femoral head.
It also reduces joint pain and leads to the formation of stable and mobile pseudarthrosis.
The mesh manifested osteoprotective properties and enabled the formation of a stiff-elastic connection within the hip joint.
The method is very cost-effective and the technique itself is simple to perform.
