From: Ten-year survival rate after rotational acetabular osteotomy in adulthood hip dysplasia
Radiographic image of a 25-year-old woman treated with rotational acetabular osteotomy and valgus intertrochanteric osteotomy on her left hip. The preoperative radiographic image shows AHD with a deformity of the femoral head (a). The joint space becomes wider when the hip is adducted, and the position of the loading area of the femoral head becomes horizontal (b); thus, we performed RAO with valgus femoral osteotomy (c). There is no progression of OA 10 years after the surgery compared with the finding immediately after surgery, and she had no pain or any complaints on her left hip (d)
