We analysed the changes in the Harris Hip Score (HHS) and the survival rate for postoperative low back pain (LBP) and dislocation. Changes in acetabular component position, sacro-femoral-pubic (SFP) and pelvic obliquity (PO) angles were assessed with radiological images.Results:The mean HHS was lower in female patients ( p = 0.009), patients >65 years of age ( p < 0.001) and those with advanced lumbar spondylosis ( p = 0.002). 52 (71.2%) of the patients reporting preoperative LBP experienced improvement after THA while 47 (21.1%) of those without preoperative LBP postoperatively reported new onset LBP. Female patients ( p = 0.025; hazard ratio [HR]: 1.831; 95% CI, 1.081–3.101) and those with preoperative LBP ( p = 0.007; HR 2.068; 95% CI, 1.221–3.504) were at a higher risk of developing postoperative LBP at 10 years. 4 out of 9 THA dislocations were late and had shown decreasing SFP angle values over time. Acetabular component inclination and anteversion angles increased over time, whereas the SFP angle was associated with sex and age and the PO angle with age and the severity of any preoperative lumbar degeneration.Conclusions:Concurrent spinal pathology influences THA outcomes at a minimum follow-up of 10 years. Sex, age, and associated lumbar degeneration can affect clinical and radiological changes over time. A decrease in SFP angle values over time was found in patients sustaining late dislocation.","PeriodicalId":12911,"journal":{"name":"HIP International","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2024-05-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140836188","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
