Major Points * In North America, most OA in the hip is secondary • Developmental hip deformity is the commonest etiology of this secondary OA • A mechanical perspective is very helpful in understanding the nature of secondary hip OA (i.e., most OA in the hip is caused by abnormal mechanics) * Accurate analysis of the mechanical hip abnormality can often allow its surgical correction (and prevent OA!!) • Instability and impingement are the common bad actors • The acetabular rim is the usual locus of early damage – The labrum is often damaged but labral tears rarely can be repaired successfully in isolation – (>90% of labral tears have important associated bony abnormalities) * Joint-preserving hip surgery can be highly effective IF performed before there is major articular cartilage damage

Major Points<br />
* In North America, most OA in the hip is secondary<br />
• Developmental hip deformity is the commonest etiology of this secondary OA<br />
• A mechanical perspective is very helpful in understanding the nature of<br />
secondary hip OA<br />
(i.e., most OA in the hip is caused by abnormal mechanics)<br />
* Accurate analysis of the mechanical hip abnormality can often allow its surgical<br />
correction (and prevent OA!!)<br />
• Instability and impingement are the common bad actors<br />
• The acetabular rim is the usual locus of early damage<br />
– The labrum is often damaged but labral tears rarely can be repaired successfully in<br />
isolation<br />
– (>90% of labral tears have important associated bony abnormalities)<br />
* Joint-preserving hip surgery can be highly effective IF performed before there is<br />
major articular cartilage damage
