Functional Femoral Anteversion: Axial Rotation of the Femur and its Implications for Stem Version Targets in Total Hip Arthroplasty

Functional Femoral Anteversion: Axial Rotation of the Femur and its Implications for Stem Version Targets in Total Hip Arthroplasty

Background: Acetabular and femoral component positioning are important considerations in reducing adverse outcomes after total hip arthroplasty (THA). Previous assessments of femoral anteversion examined anatomic femoral anteversion (AFA) referenced to anatomic landmarks. However, this does not prov...
