Total Hip Replacement in Patients Aged 80 Years and Older

1989 
Total hip replacement was performed in 27 patients aged 80 years and older. In the early postoperative period, medical complications occurred in 13 patients and arthroplasty-related complications in 5 patients. At the time of the follow-up, after an average of 31 months, there was one case of acetabular cup loosening, which was revised. Twenty of 22 patients were free from pain at rest, and the social function of the patients had remained almost unchanged.
