Short-term prediction of clinical and radiographic contralateral hip osteoarthritis after index total hip arthroplasty
Three factors - BMI, alpha angle, and osteophyte number - are key short-term predictors for contralateral THA after index THA. We also identified BMD as a surrogate for osteophyte formation. These findings provide novel and valuable insights for patients and surgeons regarding risks and counseling for contralateral OA and THA.
