A study of functional outcome in young arthritic hip undergoing uncemented total hip arthroplasty

Abstract

There has been an increase demand of Total hip arthroplasty in young patients, however long-term results are expected to be inferior. To determine the efficacy of total hip replacements in population, the current authors reviewed the long-term results of patients who were 50 years and younger & who had cementless total hip arthroplasties at our institution, and reviewed the literature on total hip arthroplasty in younger patients.
