The adult hip: an anatomic study. Part I: the bony landmarks

TG Armbuster, J Guerra Jr, D Resnick, TG Goergen, ML Feingold, G Niwayama and LA Danzig

A comprehensive anatomic, pathologic and radiographic study of the adult hip was undertaken to define bony landmarks which, when altered, are reliable indicators of disease. Methodology included radiography of cadaveric specimens and analysis of over 300 anteroposterior (AP) radiographs of "normal" adult hips. This information was applied to clinical situations with the following conclusions: (a) The diagnosis of protrusio acetabuli is warranted if the acetabular line projects medial to the ilioischial line by 3 mm or more in men and by 6 mm or more in women. (b) In acetabular trauma, an AP and two oblique radiographs (30 degrees anterior oblique and 30--45 degrees posterior oblique) are required for complete evaluation. (c) Characteristic alterations in the joint space allow accurate diagnosis of disease.
