EFFECTS OF HIP FLEXION CONTRACTURE ON SAGITTAL SPINOPELVIC PARAMETERS.

Patients with hip osteoarthritis and hip flexion contracture tend to have an increased LL in the orthostatic position compared to patients without contracture, but with no statistical significance. After THA, PT increased in both groups and SS decreased in patients without hip contracture. Studies should further investigate the role of hip flexion contracture on pelvic mobility and spinopelvic parameters to better understand these relations.
