## Abstract The objective of this study was to provide quantitative data on hipβjoint incongruity and pressure during a simulated walking cycle and on articularβcartilage thickness in the same set of specimens. Using a casting technique in eigth specimens of the human hip (age: 18β75 years), we det
Joint thickness was assessed using three-dimensional modelling techniques before and after the Bombelli intertrochanteric valgus-extension osteotomy. Before operation, the average thickness of the entire hemispherical surface was 2.3 mm, which was significantly thinner than that of the controls. Aft
