- Higher bone density can drive knee osteoarthritis but not hip osteoarthritis
- A minority have clear cut clinical and radiological recovery, especially with marked osteophytosis and concentric disease
- Superolateral migration of the femoral head is correlated with more rapid osteoarthritis progression, also with atrophic bone response
Epidemiology
The prevalence of radiographic hip osteoarthritis is 18.2% in men and 14.3%[1]
Clinical Features
There is no clear association between pain levels and radiographic severity of hip osteoarthritis. Up to 40% of patients with hip osteoarthritis have no pain. Patients with higher pain levels showed differences in sensitisation as measured by quantitative sensory testing.[2]
Treatment
Total hip joint replacement is usually effective for reducing pain. However 10% of patients have chronic postsurgical pain, and preoperative central sensitisation has been thought to be a risk factor for this.[2]
