Revising the coxa profunda sign reveals no association with acetabular deformities or 3D lunate surface area

Objective and research question: Coxa profunda sign has traditionally been used as a radiographic parameter of increased lateral acetabular coverage. However, it is also observed in hip dysplasia, suggesting that it does not reflect acetabular coverage.
