Abstract
Age has been cited in a recent article as the largest predictor of both chondral and labral lesions in patients with hip dysplasia. But it was not surprising that there is also a direct relation between a small lateral center-edge angle, acetabular head index, and cartilage degeneration and an increased acetabular index and labral tears in patients with hip dysplasia. The severity of the congenital disease determines the severity of the intra-articular lesions.
