Abstract

Introduction: Orthopaedic implants are medical devices aiming to restore skeletal functions. The success of THR depends on the ideal placement of both acetabular and femoral components, so having a complete awareness regarding acetabular and femoral parameters including its morphology is an important requirement for successful surgery.

Aim: The aim of the study is to evaluate the morphometric characteristics of the proximal femur and acetabulum dimensions in Indian population to establish a database for making and performing total hip prosthesis.

Objectives: To measure Acetabulum dimensions, Femoral head diameter, femoral neck isthmus diameter, femoral neck length, neck shaft angle, Anteversion angle, vertical offset, Horizontal offset, Intramedullary canal diameter at narrowest portion of shaft and make a data based

Result: Significant gender differences were observed in neck length, with females having a longer neck length compared to males. The study emphasises the importance of detailed morphometric assessments in improving surgical outcomes in hip arthroplasty. The integration of 3DCT in orthopedic surgery represents a significant advancement in personalised medicine, allowing for more accurate and individualised treatment approaches.

Conclusion: Recommendations are future studies should aim to include larger and more diverse populations to enhance the generalisability of the findings. Longitudinal studies are recommended while considering these data‟s, to evaluate the long-term outcomes of hemiarthroplasty and THA. Collaboration across multiple centers would also help in validating the results and establishing comprehensive guidelines for preoperative planning.
