Abstract		A simple static three-dimennional mathematical model of an adult hip in one-legged stance was used to evaluate the mechanical situation after periacetabular osteotomy. We found that the hip jonit rotation center shifted an a consequence of the osteotomy. This may have considerable effects on the hip joint resultant force and therefore also on the pressure on the femoral head, which could cause the development of arthrosis.
