摘　　要：Normal vertical and horizontal offset is essential for hip biomechanics,muscle functioning and gait pattern.Total hip arthroplasty(THA)should aim to restore normal offset with implantation of femoral and acetabular components.This would be possible with proper preoperative planning,templating and ensuring implant options are available for offset restoration.Templating is essential for understanding the vertical and horizontal offset change,especially in hip arthritis presenting late with significant limb length discrepancy at THA.Planning should include appropriate soft tissue releases and the use of ideal implants to achieve restoration of horizontal and vertical offset.Under correction of horizontal offset at THA for fracture neck of femur could result in abductor fatigue,limp and increased wear.Restoration of horizontal offset is imperative at THA for a fractured neck of the femur to achieve optimal abductor function.Horizontal offset is necessary for optimal abductor muscle tension and function.Revision THA for acetabular bone loss would require hip center restoration with the acetabular and femoral offset correction to achieve limb length correction and abductor length.The inability to achieve vertical and horizontal offset correction could lead to dislocation or signs of abductor fatigue.Careful vertical and horizontal femur offset restoration is required for normal hip biomechanics,decreased wear and increased longevity.
