Randomized trial compares postoperative outcomes of autografts and allografts in hip surgery, suggesting important implications for treatment decisions.
Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is a well-established contributor to hip osteoarthritis (OA) progression, particularly in young adults. [1][2]][3] To delay the onset of secondary OA, various joint-preserving surgical procedures have been developed.One such procedure is periacetabular osteotomy (PAO), which improves femoral head coverage by reorienting the dysplastic acetabulum.First described by Nishio 4) in 1956, PAO enhances joint stability and mitigates OA progression.PAO can be performed via an anterior or lateral approach, each with distinct advantages and limitations. 5)he anterior approach offers a smaller incision and re-
