Morphology of bone structures of acetabulum and femoral component of hip joint

Abstract

Purpose: to reveal features of bone structures correlation of acetabulum and femoral components of a hip joint. Material and methods. The sizes of acetabulum, pelvis and proximal metaepiphysis of femur have been determined on 98 sets of pelvis and femurs and 120 KT-grams of adults. Results. Sexual and bilateral distinctions, correlation of bone structures of acetabulum, proximal metaepiphysis and femur have been revealed. Conclusion. The received values of the main morphometric parameters of bone structures of hip joint and pelvis and their correlation develop the database of clinical anatomy of hip joint.
