At a minimum of one year after operation, we studied 64 patients with 86 total hip arthroplasties (THA) by standard anteroposterior hip and pelvic radiographs and measurement of range of motion and of isometric abduction strength.The femoral offset correlated positively with the range of abduction (p=0.046). Abduction strength correlated positively with both femoral offset (p=0.0001) and the length of the abductor lever arm (p=0.005). Using multiple regression, abduction strength correlated,vith height (p=0.017), gender (p=0.0005), range of flexion (p=0.047) and the abductor lever arm (p=0.060).Our findings suggest that greater femoral offset after THA allows both an increased range of abduction and greater abductor strength.
