Abstract:
Objective To discuss causes and corresponding prevention for groin pain occurred early after total hip arthroplasty(THA).Methods A retrospective study was done on 189 cases(193 hips)treated with THA including unilateral procedures in 185 hips and bilateral procedures in eight hips to analyze common causes for early groin pain.Results Groin pain was found in 9.3% hips(18/ 193)during hospital stay,including 1.6%(3 cases)with deep infection,1.6%(3 cases)with incision infection,1%(2 cases)with posterior dislocation,4.1%(8 cases)with leg lengthening and 1%(2 cases)with hematoma.Conclusions Despite of the numerous diagnostic alternatives available to the orthopedic surgeon,detailed history,careful physical examination,necessary laboratory and imaging stud- ies can contribute to a correct determination of causes for groin pain.Meanwhile,appropriate indication, accurate preoperative radiographic measurement,intraoperative standardized surgical procedures and per- fect rehabilitation are necessary to avoid complications.
