The relation between acetabular dysplasia and osteoarthritis of the hip was examined in a series of 1516 pelvic radiographs taken for non-skeletal indications. Osteoarthritis was assessed by measuring joint space, and dysplasia by the centre-edge angle and acetabular depth. In contrast with previous studies of patients with symptomatic osteoarthritis of the hip, no evidence that dysplasia predisposes to osteoarthritis was found. Possible reasons for the discrepancy are discussed. It was concluded that although acetabular dysplasia may lead to osteoarthritis of the hip in some subjects, it is unlikely to be an important cause of the disease in men.
在一系列因非骨骼指征拍摄的1516张骨盆X光片中，研究了髋臼发育不良与髋关节骨关节炎之间的关系。通过测量关节间隙评估骨关节炎，通过中心边缘角和髋臼深度评估发育不良。与之前对有症状的髋关节骨关节炎患者的研究不同，未发现发育不良易患骨关节炎的证据。讨论了差异存在的可能原因。得出的结论是，虽然髋臼发育不良在某些个体中可能导致髋关节骨关节炎，但它不太可能是男性该疾病的重要病因。
