Are changes in radiological leg alignment and femoral parameters after total hip replacement responsible for joint loading during gait?

Are changes in radiological leg alignment and femoral parameters after total hip replacement responsible for joint loading during gait?

Abstract Background Gait kinematics after total hip replacement only partly explain the differences in the joint moments in the frontal plane between hip osteoarthritis patients after hip replacement and healthy controls. The goal of this study was to determine if total hip replacement surgery affec...
