Functional pelvic tilt frequently differs from the anterior pelvic plane in non-arthritic hip disorders
There is a wide variation in patients' functional pelvic positioning in both supine and standing radiographs, in all different subgroups, which rarely correlates with the APP. Commercial 3D motion analysis may therefore give misleading results for both the extent and location of hip impingement as well as femoral head coverage, which may affect surgical decision-making. Consideration should be given to incorporating this into the software algorithms.
