Navigating Hip Biomechanics in Surgery

This chapter examines the complexities involved in hip biomechanics and the critical need for replicating normal anatomy during surgical revisions. It highlights the impact of surgical choices, particularly neck cuts, on leg length and offset, as well as the significance of these factors on patient outcomes such as gait and limping. The discussion also covers the challenges of muscle transfer procedures, sharing a case that illustrates unexpected positive results despite initial complications.
