The aim of this investigation was to examine normal hip joint morphometry and the acetabular dysplasia rate in Turkish adults. Center-edge angle, acetabular angle, acetabular depth, acetabular roof obliquity, and roof angle were measured in standardized pelvic radiographs of 495 adults without any hip symptoms. The center-edge angle was significantly different in the patients over the age of 70 than all other age groups except those in the 60 to 69 group. Additionally, there were differences between those in the 60 to 69 age group compared to those in the 20 to 29 age group. The acetabular angle showed a significant difference between gender and between the age groups over 60. The acetabular angle was negatively correlated with center-edge angle. Even though no significant differences were observed in the acetabular depth, differences in acetabular roof obliquity and roof angle were related to gender and age, all showed high standard deviations. The rate of acetabular dysplasia was 2.4% in the Turkish adult population aged 20 to 79. It is concluded that the center-edge angle may be a useful parameter in the evaluation of acetabular dysplasia if one is aware of its difference in patients over the age of 60.
