Hip dysplasia as risk factor for clinically relevant and radiographic hip osteoarthritis: 10-year results from the CHECK cohort.

In the long term, baseline hip dysplasia was associated with an increased risk for clinically relevant hip OA, but not for incident radiographic hip OA. With this in mind, we suggest that future research investigating the link between hip dysplasia and OA strive to include a definition for OA that is clinically relevant.
