Variations in the obturator artery around the obturator foramen assessed by three-dimensional computed tomographic angiography and prevention of vascular-related complications in rotational acetabular osteotomy
PurposeThe aims of this study were (1) to evaluate the anatomical variations and locations of the obturator artery at the obturator foramen using computed tomographic (CT) angiography images and (2) to evaluate the pubic osteotomy site in rotational acetabular osteotomy using postoperative CT images in order to assess the relationship between the obturator artery and the pubic osteotomy site.
