| Abstract | Our study describes the mid-term clinical results of the use of transtrochanteric valgus osteotomy (TVO) for the treatment of osteoarthritis of the hip secondary to acetabular dysplasia. The operation included valgus displacement at the level of the lesser trochanter, and lateral displacement of the greater trochanter by inserting a wedge of bone. We reviewed 70 hips. The mean age of the patients at operation was 44 years (14 to 59). Most (90%) had advanced osteoarthritis. The scores for pain and gait had improved significantly at a mean follow-up of 9.4 years. The rate of survival until an endpoint of a further operation during a follow-up of ten years was 82%. The survival rate was 95% in patients with unilateral involvement who were less than 50 years of age at operation. TVO is a useful form of treatment for advanced osteoarthritis of the hip, particularly in young patients with unilateral disease. |
