The Ganz periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) is currently the most popular hip-sparing procedure in adults with acetabular dysplasia. If this procedure fails and a total hip arthroplasty is necessary, spatial reorientation of the acetabulum alters the conditions of implanting the acetabular component of the prosthesis. In our study, we present two cases of total hip arthroplasty in patients who had undergone PAO.
