Abstract
Case:
This is a case of 27-year-old woman with bilateral hip dysplasia who had been treated with a pelvic support osteotomy (PSO) on 1 side and a contralateral total hip replacement (THR). Good clinical outcomes for both hips were achieved after 21 and 7 years after PSO and THR, respectively. To the best of our knowledge, these 2 different methods have not been previously reported in 1 patient.
Conclusion:
Total hip arthroplasty in presence of contralateral PSO may be offered as a viable treatment option for advanced osteoarthritis to restore hip range of motion and achieve satisfactory clinical results.
