Factors associated with poor hip flexion range of motion after total hip arthroplasty in patients with ankylosing spondylitis: a retrospective study on 538 consecutive hips
Nearly one out of the five hips in patients with AS have a poor hip flexion ROM after THA. Care has to be taken in acetabular component positioning during THA and its effect on the postoperative hip flexion function should be considered in the patients. The optimum treatment strategy is that THA should be performed before ankylosis in patients with AS.
