Limb Length Inequality

♦ Limb length inequality is common: prediction of the final discrepancy at skeletal maturity is important to allow appropriate management plans to be made♦ Knowledge of the underlying cause helps with prognosis♦ Management is influenced by various factors including age and height and often involves a combination of treatment methods.

Limb Length Inequality

<p class="abstract">Correcting limb length inequality without compromising hip stability is one of the major intraoperative challenges in Total hip arthroplasty (THA) as it is a major cause of patient dissatisfaction and litigation against surgeon. Surgeons performing THA should aim to minimize Limb Length Discrepancy (LLD), and therefore should adopt a reliable method of doing so. Thus a reproducible technique which effectively reduces postoperative LLD without increasing operative time and is easy to apply is a need of time. Although various preoperative and intraoperative techniques are described in literature, none is universally applicable and is without limitations. We are presenting a review of 50 articles on limb length discrepancy after total hip arthroplasty, its implications and several techniques to avoid it. We suggest that every effort should be made to minimise postoperative Limb Length Discrepancy by combined use of preoperative and intraoperative techniques.</p>
