Table 2.

Mnemonics

1 mm ↑ lateral displacement = 0.7% ↑ hip load
1 mm ↑ proximal displacement = 0.1% ↑ hip load
1 mm ↑ lateral offset = 0.8% ↓ hip load
1 mm ↑ neck length = 1% ↓ hip load

Mnemonics which could be used for the majority of cases. This approximation is calculated for values between −10 mm and +30 mm in the mediolateral and proximal-distal direction
