Abstract
Total hip replacement is now rapidly achieving acceptance for patients in their late fifties or early sixties as a standard method of treating a large number of different types of hip disorders. Current research now centres on perfecting various details of surgical technique in the hope of eliminating the very small number of failures which are still encountered from time to time. Continuing studies of the basic elements of the operation are in progress in the hope of making the procedure suitable for the younger patients with thirty or forty years of very active physical life ahead of them.
