title: [Long-term results of 2 continuous series of total hip prostheses of the McKee-Farrar metallo-metal type and the Charnley metallo-plastic type].
abstract: Two continuous series of McKee-Farrar type metal-metal and Charnley type metal-plastic prostheses have been examined. Results are analysed and complications examined ten years after the operation. The McKee-Farrar prostheses showed inferior results in all parameters and a markedly higher incidence of late complications compared to the Charnley prostheses.
