Supports algorithmic selection in acetabular retroversion; leaves open superiority versus alternatives in randomized trials.
Does an algorithmic approach based on acetabular coverage and cartilage condition improve functional outcomes in young adults with symptomatic femoroacetabular impingement due to acetabular retroversion?
An algorithmic approach to acetabular retroversion based on acetabular coverage and cartilage condition yields excellent mid-term functional outcomes and high survivorship.
