    Notes: Abstract The difference between male and female femoral and pelvic geometry was studied by considering some geometrical parameters such as interhip distance, inclination of the crista iliaca, diameter of the femoral head and centre-edge angle of Wiberg. The values of these parameters were determined for 79 healthy female and 21 healthy male subjects. Standard anterior-posterior radiographs were used and processed by the computer-aided system. The results show some important sex differences in femoral and pelvic geometrical parameters which determine the hip joint contact stress.

    Notes: Abstract The magnitude and the direction of the resultant hip joint force are different in different body positions during gait. Therefore the stress distribution in the hip joint articular surface also changes. The aim of this work is to study how the stress distribution changes if the magnitude and the direction of the hip joint force is changed during gait. For this purpose a three-dimensional mathe-matical model is developed. We calculated the values of the peak stress and the location of the pole on the articular surface (where the stress is maximal) in the successive phases of the walking cycle. The values of the peak stress range from 0.8 MPa in the one limb stance phase to 2.6 MPa in the heel strike phase.

    Notes: Summary A mathematical model was used to evaluate the mechanical situation after various operative shifts of the hip joint rotation center. It was concluded that while performing different pelvic osteotomies and the total hip replacement the hip joint rotation center should be shifted as far medially as is technically possible to reduce the magnitude of the hip joint contact force. By contrast, lateralization of the hip joint rotation center strongly increases the magnitude of the hip joint contact force; therefore this should be avoided whenever possible. The superior shift of the hip joint rotation center decreases the strength of the patient's hip abductor muscles and must therefore also be avoided. The inferior shift of the hip joint rotation center is favorable because it increases the strength of the patient's hip abductor muscles.

    Notes: Abstract In this study various femoral and pelvic geometrical parameters important for hip joint contact stress were determined. The parameters were measured from standard anteroposterior radiographs of healthy adult subjects and analysed by using descriptive statistical procedures. Women proved to have a significantly smaller femoral head radius and larger distance between the inner acetabular rims than men, both features which lead to an increase of contact stress in the hip joint articular surface. Since too high, long-lasting contact stress is unfavourable regarding the development of arthrosis, we propose that these differences in the femoral and pelvic geometry could be one of the reasons for the increased incidence of arthrosis in women.

    Notes: Abstract A mathematical model was used in order to evaluate the mechanical situation after lateral, medial, distal and proximal displacements of the greater trochanter. It was calculated that lateral displacement may considerably reduce the hip joint contact force, while medial displacement greatly increases it. The influence of proximalization and distalization is much less pronounced. It was further shown that, regarding the postoperative relative hip abductor muscle strength, lateral and distal displacements of the greater trochanter are favourable, while proximal and medial displacements are not.
