Stress Analysis of Hip Dysplasia
Hip DysplasiaThe main objective of this study is to predict cartilage contact pressures in the hip after periacetabular osteotomy (PAO).
Discovering the Gene(s) Causing Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip (DDH)
Hip DysplasiaThe primary objective of the study is to find the gene(s) responsible for causing DDH. The secondary objective of the study is to determine the mode of genetic transmission of DDH.
Research for Genetic Factors Involved in Congenital Dislocation of Hip: Genome-wide Association...
Congenital Hip DislocationThe main objective is to identify the genes involved in congenital dislocation of the hip. The secondary objectives are to measure the association between mechanical risk factors and congenital dislocation of hip and study the interactions between these factors and genetic factors.
Routine Follow up After Total Hip Arthroplasty Prior Periacetabular Osteotomy
Hip DysplasiaOsteotomy of Pelvis1 moreFollow up study of patients, who despite periacetabular osteotomy, need a total hip arthroplasty, to see outcome.
Psychological, Sexually and Social Consequences of Osteoarthritis Treatment With THA or TKA and...
OsteoarthritisDepression1 moreThe project runs as a Ph.d. project at the Faculty of Health Sciences- University of Copenhagen. In Denmark the investigators operate around 16.000 artificial hips and knees yearly, mainly due to osteoarthritis. The numbers has increased with 13,9% for hips and 50,7% for knees in the period 2004 to 2007. In 10% of the cases, or approximately 1.600 patients, the patient is younger than 50 years - mid-life, working, socially active and sexually active. The investigators have a tendency within in the orthopedic society to mainly focus on the technological aspects of the procedure and tend to forget that this is a key event for the patient with widespread consequences for the patient and his future life. Hip- and knee arthroplasties is without no doubt two of the most important and successfully surgical procedures ever introduced. The economical cost for osteoarthritis treatment has exploded in the developed world over the last decade, with a yearly growth on 8%. Because of the limited lifetime for an artificial hip or knee, this treatment can be unfortunate for the young patient. This has over the last years led to an increased interest for joint preserving surgery. Over the last twenty years it has been tried to delay the time for total hip arthroplasties for patients with hip dysplasia with the aid of Ganz osteotomy. Since this technique was introduced back in 1988, the research on the topic has had its main focus on optimizing the operation technique. So as with surgery with artificial hip or knee the investigators have a lack of knowledge regarding the social, work related, psychological and sexual aspects of this treatment. Purpose The consequences of an artificial hip or knee joint regarding patients' social-life, work, psychological and sexual aspects gain very little attention international. The investigators apply most of our research funds exclusively to research and development of the surgical track and procedure, new prosthesis designs or coatings. The investigators find this study highly relevant because this kind of studies has been preformed for several chronic diseases but not osteoarthritis and its treatment. With this study the investigators wish to examine the social, work related, psychological and sexual aspects of end stage osteoarthritis. This will lead the way for improved information to the patient and improve the surgeons' possibilities for chosen the correct time for surgery.
Biomechanical Reconstruction of Three Different Hip Stem Designs in Hip Dysplasia Using a 3D CT-based...
Dysplasia; HipA random population of 200 CT scans of pelvis and thigh in an adult population affected by hip dysplasia will be selected. The aim of this study is to evaluate the biomechanical reconstruction of the hip anatomy provided by three different hip stem designs in dysplastic cases, using a 3D CT based software for pre-operative planning.
A New Pelvic Osteotomy Method for Open Reduction
Developmental Dysplasia of the HipDevelopmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) was one of the most common hip disorders disease in children. Pemberton osteotomy (PO) was one of the most widely used by the pediatric orthopedic surgeons. In our clinical work, the investigators found some defect the operation procedure. When the surgeons were not familiar to the PO, it may injured the triradiate cartilage or easily be absorbable of the distal iliac. Here, the investigators found a new pelvic osteotomy just from the inner "L shaped" iliac osteotomy (ILSO) to treat DDH. This approach was in a visible part of the sciatic notch and not presumed to be in the ischium, completely out of sight. Comparing to the PO method, the investigators' operation method was easy to master and had less complications.
Developmental Hip Dysplasia by Ultrasonographic Screening of Asymptomatic Infants at Assiut University...
Orthopedic DisorderDevelopmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH), formerly known as congenital dislocation of the hip, comprises a spectrum of abnormalities that include abnormal acetabular shape (dysplasia) and malposition of the femoral head.
Movement Pattern in Patients With Hip Dysplasia
Hip DysplasiaThe purpose of this study is to examine the movement pattern in patients with hip dysplasia preoperative, six and 12 month after minimally invasive approach for Periacetabular osteotomy (PAO). Secondary to examine the movement pattern in patients compared to healthy controls and historical data.
