Abstract:
A basic understanding of the surgical approach, technique, and potential complications in addition to the types of hardware used is essential in interpreting postoperative imaging of the hip. This article reviews the various surgical approaches to the hip and hardware components in total hip arthroplasty and hip preservation surgery and the potential complications that may arise. The various surgical treatments in the management of acetabular dysplasia and avascular necrosis and the imaging appearances of these on different imaging modalities are also discussed.
