Abstract
Purpose: To determine the added value of computed tomography (CT) to identify severe hip osteoarthritis (OA).
Materials and methods: A retrospective query of all cases of hip or knee arthroplasty planning CTs between January 2018 and March 2022 was performed. Age, sex, and symptoms were collected from the medical record. CTs were evaluated for the degree of osteoarthritis and classified using an adapted Kellgren-Lawrence (KL) grading system in the anterior, posterior, superior, and superomedial hip. Frontal hip or pelvis radiographs within 1 year of the CT were also graded.
Results: There were 265 eligible hips in 178 subjects, age 66 ± 11 (range 31-93) years, with 85/178 (48%) males and 93/178 (52%) females, and 127/265 (48%) right and 138/265 (52%) left hips. The posterior hip joint was the most common location for grade 2/3 OA (20%), followed by superior hip joint (14%). Anterior or posterior grade 2/3 OA occurred concurrently with superior or superomedial grade 2/3 OA in 32/68 (47%) of hips. Grade 2/3 OA was detected on CT more commonly than on XR both in the superior (14 vs 8.6%, P = 0.0016) and superomedial (8.7 vs 4.8%, P = 0.016) hip joint. Of the 71 symptomatic hips, 22 (31%) hips demonstrated either anterior and/or posterior grade 2/3 OA on CT, and 9 (9/22, 41%) of these hips had superior or superomedial grade 0/1 OA.
Conclusion: CT may be warranted when the patient has pain suggestive of osteoarthritis not detected on radiographs.
期刊介绍:
Skeletal Radiology provides a forum for the dissemination of current knowledge and information dealing with disorders of the musculoskeletal system including the spine. While emphasizing the radiological aspects of the many varied skeletal abnormalities, the journal also adopts an interdisciplinary approach, reflecting the membership of the International Skeletal Society. Thus, the anatomical, pathological, physiological, clinical, metabolic and epidemiological aspects of the many entities affecting the skeleton receive appropriate consideration.
This is the Journal of the International Skeletal Society and the Official Journal of the Society of Skeletal Radiology and the Australasian Musculoskelelal Imaging Group.
