Total hip arthroplasty in Paget's disease of the hip.
For thirty-two patients with Paget's disease of the pelvis, mechanical disruption of the hip joint caused sufficient pain and disability to require total hip-replacement arthroplasty. Three of the patients had had fractures of the femoral neck. No unusual complications were encountered and the results were excellent.
