title: [Arthrotic Lumbar spinal canal stenosis and total hip prosthesis].
abstract: The authors have seen 11 instances in which symptoms that could be related to arthrosis of the hip and treated by total hip replacement were associated with root involvement due to lumbar spinal stenosis of degenerative origin. At times the Surgeon had been misled and treated the hip first instead of the spine. The clinical signs of these associated lesions, which are not uncommon, are described. This paper aims to draw the attention of Surgeons to the frequency of symptoms originating from the spine in patients more than 70 years old.
