Right periacetabular osteotomy: Definition, Uses, and Clinical Overview
Right periacetabular osteotomy is a hip-preservation surgery performed on the right hip socket. It reshapes and reorients the acetabulum (the “cup” of the hip joint) to better cover the femoral head. It is most commonly used for symptomatic hip dysplasia and related instability. It is typically performed by orthopedic surgeons who specialize in young adult hip conditions.
