Background: Appropriate positioning of the acetabular cup in total hip arthroplasty (THA) can improve hip function, reduce wear, impingement and dislocation. The position of the cup is described as the spatial relationship between the centre of rotation of the hip and the pelvis. The aim of this study is to describe the positioning of the uncemented monoblock cup in the immediate postoperative period in patients who underwent a primary THA.Methods: Descriptive observational study. The patients were operated by 4 joints arthroplasty surgeons in 8 different hospitals, from October 2015 to August 2018. The radiological measurements were taken from the AP Pelvis Xrays of the immediate postoperative. The inclination, anteversion, lateralization, percentage of cup uncovered and the space behind the acetabular cup.
Results: 82.05% of the cups were in the range of inclination from 36 to 48 degrees; 85.71% had an anteversion between 5 to 15 degrees, 76.56% presented a lateralization of -2 to +2 mm, 94.51% of the patients didnt have a uncover cup, and 92.67% of the cups had a space behind the cup from 0 to 3 mm.
Discussion: In our study the highest percentage of cups were implanted with parameters agree to the safety areas reported by various authors. Adequate positioning of the uncemented monoblock acetabular cup can be achieved with a proper indication, a surgical approach that allows an ideal three-dimensional location and an acetabulum with a good peripheral rim that provides the required press-fit.
