We performed Kawamura's dome osteotomy of the pelvis, with simultaneous distal transfer of the greater trochanter on 101 hips in 91 patients with osteoarthritis secondary to hip dysplasia. The mean age at operation was 30 years (15 to 55), and follow-up was for a mean of 8.3 years (5 to 14). Clinical evaluation using the Merle d'Aubigné score showed 92% excellent or good results. Radiologically, 91 hips had good acetabular remodelling and showed no signs of progression of osteoarthritis. In ten hips the osteoarthritic process progressed despite the osteotomy and six of these eventually underwent total hip replacement. Factors which were significantly associated with a poor outcome included an advanced stage of osteoarthritis, valgus deformity of the proximal femur, old age at the time of operation and postoperative persistence of abductor insufficiency.
