This Instructional Course Lecture (ICL) explores the intricate relationship between spinopelvic mobility and its effect on the outcomes of total hip arthroplasty.

Editor
Joshua Craig Rozell, MD, FAAOS 

Learning Objectives

• Assess the effect of spinopelvic mobility patterns on acetabular component positioning and total hip arthroplasty implant stability.
• Identify spinopelvic risk factors that contribute to dislocation and instability after total hip arthroplasty.
• Perform a preoperative spinopelvic mobility analysis to optimize acetabular component positioning for each patient.
• Differentiate between hip-spine interaction patterns, including normal and pathologic mobility scenarios, and their implications on total hip arthroplasty outcomes.
• Evaluate the role of combined anteversion in minimizing impingement and ensuring prosthetic stability during total hip arthroplasty.
• Implement radiographic and functional imaging techniques to identify spinal stiffness and deformity and their effects on total hip arthroplasty.
• Develop surgical strategies to address spinopelvic abnormalities in high-risk patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty, including component placement adjustments and implant selection.
• Critically analyze the importance of a preoperative spinopelvic analysis in preventing instability in patients undergoing revision total hip arthroplasty.
