Copyright policy )Total hip replacement arthroplasty
A prospective study of 62 total hip replacements performed between February 1970 and December 1972 in 50 patients was carried out. The results were assessed according to the Asaf Harofe Hip Evaluation System. There were excellent and good results in 89% of hips. Failures occured in 11% and were due to individual cases of loosening of the femoral component, loosening of the acetabular cup, painful hip in a man with angina pectoris, sciatic causalgia and limited hip motion. In 22% of patients thrombo-embolic episodes were diagnosed. No deaths, deep infections or dislocations occured.
