Tönnis angle and acetabular depth ratio: predictors of dislocation following hemiarthroplasty for hip fracture

This study demonstrates that TA > 10° and ADR < 250 are useful criteria to identify patients at greater risk of hip hemiarthroplasty dislocation due to acetabular dysplasia. Special consideration to preoperative planning should be taken in these patients. Future research should focus on methods to minimise risk in this subset of patients, including evaluating total hip arthroplasty with dual mobility component vs hemiarthroplasty.
