Abstract

The clinical and radiographic results in 126 primary CAD total hip replacements were assessed after 2 years in a prospective study. The clinical overall results were satisfactory, with 89 per cent of the hips being free from significant pain. Femoral component loosening was radiographically evident in 6 per cent. The walking speed was increased by 83 per cent in patients with unilateral hip disease. This increase was partly achieved during the second postoperative year.
