In Japan there are many cases of secondary osteoarthritis of the hip caused by LCC or displasia of the acetabular roof.We performed rotational acetabular osteotomy on ten cases of precoxarthrosis or in the early stage of osteoarthritis of the hip caused by acetabular dysplasia.All patients, one male and nine females. had suffered from coxalgia while walking or after standing for a long time.The symptoms such as coxalgia, easy fatigability of the hip and limping, disappeared in 8 months after the operation.The mean operation time was 4 hours and one minute, and mean blood loss was 1173ml.Two cases are presented here.We believe that rotational acetabular osteotomy not only relieves pain but also prevents the development of osteoarthritis of the hip.
