^aValues are presented as mean ± SD or median [IQR].
P-values in boldface indicate statistical significance.
FF, forward flexion; ABD, abduction; ER, external rotation; IR, internal rotation; Preop, before surgery; Postop, at 1 year after surgery.
Internal rotation was measured as the level that could be reached by the thumb (0, greater trochanter; 2, buttock; 4, lumbosacral junction; 6, L3; 8, T12; 10, T7).
