Abstract: The hip center of rotation is an important landmark in performing total hip replacement and its restoration is one of the goals of the reconstruction. Several studies have attempted to locate the hCOR using radiographic landmarks. However, most of these methods were done on the Western population and only a few on Asian populations. Racial variations may influence the hip and pelvis morphometry and the hCOR. This may also have implications in the outcome of total hip arthroplasty. Thus, standardized values for Filipinos must be determined.
