PAO Definition
"Periacetabular" means around the acetabulum. "Osteotomy" means to cut bone. Simply put, the PAO cuts the bone around the acetabulum that joins the acetabulum to the pelvis. Once the acetabulum is detached from the rest of the pelvis by a series of carefully controlled cuts, it is rotated to a position of ideal coverage as dictated by the specific acetabulum's unique anatomy.

Thanks so much for posting your story! I am a 32 yr old mom of three about to have a PAO on the left hip at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN next weekend. Diagnosed with congenital hip disp at 18 mons. POA on right hip at 2 but never on the left side.
I was at Disney this weekend and ran the Wine and Dine 5K. Left hip felt like running on nails but I'm looking forward to hopefully completing the 1/2 marathon next year - that's my goal. Terrified of the upcoming surgery. Your blog has been so helpful!
Good luck with your surgery! You will be running again in no time :)
I love running Disney! Training now for the princess 1/2 in Feb....
Thank you for the well wishes. I am now home from surgery after 3 days with Trousdale at Mayo. This hurts much worse than I had imagined. Did you find you had increased pain on days you pushed yourself to do more with your surgical leg just after surgery? I think that is what is happening to me.
Yes... I pushed hard some days... And felt it! Hope you are doing better now!
