I would like to find some scholarly articles to bring to my appointment with my doctor, something like, "best surgical practices for hip replacement for patients with diagnosed scoliosis, or spondylitis, or hip dysplasis". Could you refer me to a few sites where I could print off some data regarding this. Thank you so much
Thank you for responding.
I appreciated what you had to share.
Hi!
I am sorry to hear about your medical problems. Yes, if the weight bearing is not right, then pressure transmission along hip, knee, ankle joint is wrong and can displace a prosthesis. So, yes, a spine problem can affect he positioning of hip prosthesis. Please discuss with your doctor. Take care!
