[The B.S.R. after total hip-replacement (author's transl)].
Out of 327 patients followed up for at least 2 years the changes in the B.S.R. of 260 patients with an uncomplicated postoperative course, of 10 patients with early and 11 with late infection were analyzed. Where there were no complications the BSR falls quickly and reaches its lowest level after 6 months. In early and, surprisingly, also in late infection the BSR is high and does not show any tendency to return to normal.
