Figure 3 Preoperative and postoperative comparison of acetabular sourcil length demonstrating improved acetabular coverage after periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) (Neusoft Medical image diagnostic reporting system; Neusoft Co Ltd, Shenyang, China). Preoperative (A) and postoperative (B) acetabular sourcil length in a 28-year-old female patient with bilateral developmental dysplasia of the hip. The sourcil length increased from 25.16 mm preoperatively to 32.77 mm at 37 months postoperatively in the left hip and from 28.17 mm to 28.84 mm in the right hip, indicating improved acetabular coverage following periacetabular osteotomy.
