- Abstract
Introduction: Symptomatic hip dysplasia is often treated with the periacetabular osteotomy (PAO). Studies investigating the effect of PAO have primarily focused on radiographic measurements, pain-related outcomes, and hip survival while evidence related to sport participation is limited. Objective: The primary aim of this study was to report the rate of participation in sports among patients with hip dysplasia before undergoing PAO compared to up to 20 years after surgery. Study Design: Cohort study with both retrospective and prospectively collected data. Methods: All patients who had undergone PAO and had answered at least one question related to sport registered in our institutional database were deemed eligible. Patients were asked if they were playing sport preoperatively, 6 months after PAO as well as 2, 5, 10, 15 and 20 years after. In addition, patients were asked if they were able to play their preferred sport, at what level they were playing sport, what type of sport and if surgery had improved their sport performance. Results: Among 2404 patients surveyed, 1928 (80%) were included and 56% were playing sport 6months after PAO. This number was 61% two years after PAO, and remained around that for the following years, before dropping 15 years after PAO. Between 56% and 71% of patients felt that their sporting performance improved following PAO at the different time points. Between 39% (6 months after PAO) and 63% (15 years after PAO) were able to participate in their preferred sport. Conclusion: Patients undergoing PAO due to hip dysplasia have a good chance of returning to, and maintaining, sport after PAO. And more than half of patients undergoing PAO believe that the surgery improved their sports performance, and long after the surgery more than half of patients undergoing PAO can participate in their preferred sport.
