The Hip Unit carries out the first publication in Spanish of the greatest experience in mini-invasive periacetabular osteotomy

As we have already announced through our Twitter account, the reviewers and the scientific editorial confirm their next publication in the Spanish journal of Orthopedics and Traumatology.

This is the description of the periacetabular Ganz mini-invasive technique by Søballe mini-approach (JBJS Am 2008) with the technical variants developed by the Hip Unit itself and its results in the medium term, in a significant number of cases ( 131), which today have exceeded five hundred. It is the greatest experience in this technique in all of southern Europe.

The first signatory, developer and lead author is Dr. Ramírez-Núñez, helped by Dr. Ribas, who is carrying out a line of work and publications on this subject, which will soon bear fruit. From here, our most sincere thanks to the fellows who, during these years, have made possible, with their collaboration, such a great database.

Remember also that Dr. Ribas learned periacetabular osteotomy from the hands of Dr. Robert Trousdale in 2003 during his stay at the Mayo Clinic with Dr. Oliver Marín of Madrid and Dr. Javier Camacho of Mexico City. He started it in September 2003 and in his mini-invasive variant in 2007, after his stay in Denmark with Professor Söballe (one year before its publication in the JBJS Am 2008).
