sagittal & coronal
• Neck Shaft angle
– 140 deg at birth
– 120-135 deg in adult
• Ante version
– Anteverted 40 deg at birth
– 12-15 deg in adults
8. Neck of femur
(a) Normal femoral neck angle,
(b) a decreased femoral neck angle (coxa vara)
(c) an increased femoral neck angle (coxa valga)
Angulated in relation to the shaft in two planes - sagittal(neck shaft angle)
and coronal(ante-version).

• Angle between the neck and shaft in the
coronal plane(viewed from above)
• Axis of the neck and the trans-condylar
axis
• 15-20 degrees anterior to coronal plane

17. It has 3 axis and three degrees
of freedom.
Hip motion takes place in all
three planes:
Saggital (flexion-extension)
Frontal(abduction-adduction)
Transverse (internal-
external rotation)
18. Joint reaction force
• Defined as force generated within a joint in response to forces acting on the joint
• In the hip, it is the result of the need to balance the moment arms of the body weight and
abductor tension
• Maintains a level pelvis

22. Bi-pedal stance
✤ Body weight is equally
distributed across both
hips
✤ Each hip supports
4/6th or 1/3rd the BW
✤ Little or no muscle

maintain equilibrium

23. Single leg stance
Effective centre of gravity
moves distally and away
from the supporting leg
since the non supporting
leg is now calculated as
part of the body mass
acting upon the weight-
bearing hip
24. The force of the abductor muscles also creates a moment
around the centre of the femoral head;
however this moment arm is considerably shorter than the
effective lever arm of body weight. Therefore the combined
force of the abductors must be a multiple of body weight.
The magnitude of the forces depends critically on the lever
arm ratio, which is that ratio between the body weight
moment arm and the abductor muscle moment arm (a:b).
Typical levels for single leg stance are three times
bodyweight, corresponding to a level ratio of 2.5.
25. Anything that increases the lever arm ratio
also increases the abductor muscle force
required for gait and consequently the force
on the head of the femur.
Short femoral necks
Wide pelvis
This tendency means that women have
larger hip forces than men.
26.
27. Joint Reaction Force
• Forces generated within a joint in response to
external forces (both intrinsic and extrinsic).
Can reach 3 to 6 times body weight & is primarily
due to contraction of muscles crossing the hip.
Twice during SLRT
3 times in single leg stance
5 times in walking
Upto 10 times while running
Reduced to half upon using a cane

30. Compensatory Lateral Lean of the Trunk
Gravitational torque at the pelvis is the product of body
weight and the distance that the LoG lies from the hip
joint axis (MA).
If there is a need to reduce the torque of gravity in
unilateral stance and if body weight cannot be reduced, the
MA of the gravitational force can be reduced by laterally
leaning the trunk over the pelvis toward the side of pain or
weakness when in unilateral stance on the painful limb.
31. Although leaning toward the side of pain might appear
counterintuitive [Contrary to what common sense would suggest],
the compensatory lateral lean of the trunk toward the
painful stance limb will swing the LoG closer to the hip
joint,
thereby reducing the gravitational MA.
32. Because the weight of HATLL must pass through the
weight-bearing hip joint regardless of trunk position,
leaning toward the painful or weak supporting hip does not
increase the joint compression caused by body weight.
However, it does reduce the gravitational torque. If there
is a smaller gravitational adduction torque, there will be a
proportional reduction in the need for an abductor
countertorque
33. Although it is theoretically possible:
To laterally lean the trunk enough to bring the LoG
through the supporting hip (reducing the torque to
zero) or
To the opposite side of the supporting hip (reversing
the direction of the gravitational torque),
these are relatively extreme motions that require high
energy expenditure and would result in excessive wear
and tear on the lumbar spine.
More energy efficient and less structurally stressful
compensations can still yield dramatic reductions in the
hip abductor force
34. Whether a lateral trunk lean is due to muscular
weakness or pain,a lateral lean of the trunk during
walking still uses more energy than ordinarily required
for single-limb support and may result in stress
changes within the lumbar spine if used over an
extended time period.
Use of a cane or some other assistive device offers a
realistic alternative to the person with hip pain or
weakness.
35. Use of a Cane Ipsilaterally
Pushing downward on a cane held in the hand on the side
of pain or weakness should reduce the superimposed body
weight by the amount of downward thrust;
that is, some of the weight of HATLL would follow the
arm to the cane, rather than arriving on the sacrum and
the weight-bearing hip joint.
36. Inman et al. suggested that it is realistic to expect that
someone can push down on a cane with approximately
15% of his body weight.
The proportion of body weight that passes through the
cane will not pass through the hip joint and will not create
an abduction torque around the supporting hip joint.
37. Although a cane used ipsilaterally provides some benefits in
energy expenditure and structural stress reduction, it is not as
effective in reducing hip joint compression as the undesirable
lateral lean of the trunk.
Moving the cane to the opposite hand produces
substantially different and better results.
38. Use of a Cane Contralaterally
When the cane is moved to the side opposite the painful
or weak hip joint, the reduction in HATLL is the same as it
is when the cane is used on the same side as the painful hip
joint;
that is, the superimposed body weight passing through
the weight-bearing hip joint is reduced by approximately
15% of body weight.
39. However, the cane is now substantially farther from the
painful supporting hip joint than it would be if the cane is
used on the same side;
that is, in addition to relieving some of the superimposed
body weight, the cane is now in a position to assist the
abductor muscles in providing a countertorque to the
torque of gravity.
40. A classic description of the
benefit of using a cane in the
hand opposite to the hip
impairment presumes that the
downward force on the cane acts
through the full distance
between the hand and the stance

Abductor force to maintain

44. Weight Gain
Body weight and lever arm
increases.
Abductor muscular forces are
to be increased to counteract
body weight.
Increased joint forces across
the joint leading to increased
degeneration
45. Osteoarthritis of Hip
Contact area is decreased, secondary to
deformity & loss of sphericity of femoral head.
This concentrates compressive forces across the
hip joint to smaller area resulting in increased
pressure or load.
In hip disease patient decreases this load by
tilting towards the affected side in stance phase
decreasing partial body weight lever arm
46. For most painful hip joints, however, the reductions in
compression generally required are greater than can be
realistically achieved through weight loss.
The solution must be in a reduction of abductor muscle
force requirements.
47. Principles of Osteotomy
Osteotomies improve hip function
Increasing contact area / congruency
Improve coverage of head
Moving normal articular cartilage into weight bearing zone
Restore biomechanical advantage / Decreasing joint reactive forces
Stimulating cartilage repair
48. Biomechanical effects in Varus
osteotomy
Medial displacement of of femoral shaft-to
maintain the mechanical axis of leg
Lengthens the abductor muscle lever arm
Reduces the joint reaction forces
Increases weight bearing surface
Bending stresses in femoral neck and shaft
increases
49. Biomechanics like effects of
valgus osteotomy
Adducted position restores improved weight bearing area to the
diseased joint
Shortening of abductor lever arm
Lengthening of limb
So,lateral transposition of abductors,tenotomy of psoas and
adductor tendon shortening of femur may be required for optimal
biomechanical reconstruction

51. History of biomechanics inTHA
“First bonelaw”
JULIUS WOLFFE -1870
“Form follows function” 51
52. Julius Wolff, pioneered the mother of all bone laws stating
that bone adapts to the loads it is being exposed to.
Wolff based his concept of the functional form of bone on
the similarity between the inner structure of the proximal
femur and the lines of internal stress observed in the
Fairbairn steam crane
Wolff's theory has a direct application to the design of
THA.
The femoral stems that bypass the proximal femur and
transfer loads directly to the cortical bone at the distal end of
the prosthesis will cause stress shielding .
This process gradually results in bone resorption of the
bypassed proximal femur and cortical thickening of the
loaded distal cortex
53. Stress shielding in a left uncemented femoral implant. Note the distal cortical
thickening around the canal filling stem and resorption in the metaphyseal Gruen zones
1 and 7
55. Pauwels performed extensive research on the biomechanical
impact of a varus and valgus configuration of the proximal femur.
He acknowledged the influence of the neck-shaft angle on the
reaction force of the hip and thereby the magnitude of stress on
the femoral head.
The theoretical reaction force is up to 25% lower in coxa vara
compared with the average hip, whereas in coxa valga, it is 25%
higher.
The change in magnitude of the reaction force is caused by the
change in the length of the abductor lever arm.
As the neck-shaft angle increases, the abductor lever arm
decreases, thereby requiring a higher abductor force to balance
the BW.
57. Charnley’s Concept
Shorten the lever arm of the body weight by deepening
the acetabulum (centralization of the femoral head)
Lengthen the lever arm of the abductor mechanism by
reattaching the osteotomized greater trochanter laterally.
Thus the moment produced by the body weight is
decreased, and the counterbalancing force that the abductor
mechanism must exert also is decreased.
59. Applied biomechanics in THA
Principle- To decrease joint reaction force
Centralisation of the femoral head by deepening of acetabulum
- decreases BW lever arm
59
60. Increase in neck length and lateral reattachment of trochanter
- lengthens abductor lever arm

61. Decreased BW lever arm Lengthened abductor lever arm
Reduced wear of implants
61
63. Four important variables determine the stability of
total hip arthroplasty-
1. Component design
2. Component position
3. Soft tissue positioning (restoration of offset)
4. Soft tissue function
63
64. Offset
64
Medial or horizontal offset
Centre of the head to the axis of the
stem.
Vertical offset(height)
Determined by the base length of
the prosthetic neck and length
gained by head.
The depth the implant is inserted
into the femoral canal alters the
vertical height.
67. ✤ Adjustment of neck length is important as it has effect
on both medial and horizontal offset
67
✤ Joint reaction forces are minimal if hip centre placed in
anatomical position.
68.
69. ✤ Principle of medialization has given way to preserving subchondral
bone in the pelvis and to deepening the acetabulum only as muchas
necessary to obtain bony coverage for thecup.
69
✤ Most total hip procedures are now done without osteotomy of the
greater trochanter, the abductor lever arm is altered only relative tothe
offset of the head to the stem.
✤ These compromises in the original biomechanical principles of total hip
arthroplasty have evolved to obtain beneficial tradeoffs of a biologic
nature; to preserve pelvic bone, especially subchondral bone; and to
avoid problems related to reattachment of the greatertrochanter.

81. Conclusion
The study of biomechanics in THA started out with unraveling
the general biomechanics of the hip joint and the impact of joint
replacement.
Over the years, the mathematical insights have proven to be
indispensable in both design and surgical techniques.
The nearby future holds promising answers in individualized
evaluation of total hip surgery which will hopefully translate into
improved functional restoration and longevity in THA
