Abstract
The purpose of this article is to evaluate the dislocations that occurred in a single surgeon practice over a 26 year period. After extensive research, the authors concluded that dislocation continues to occur long after the initial arthroplasty procedure. Patients should be aware that more than a quarter of dislocations occur 2 years following surgery. Use of modular 22 millimeter components were associated with the highest dislocation rate. These components should be used very cautiously. Constrained liners have helped decrease the dislocation rate following revision for dislocation.
