Endoprosthetic surgery on the head of the femur to correct aftereffects of tuberculous coxitis has been conducted in 23 patients. A combined preoperative preparation implying normalization of external respiration and cardiovascular function, x-ray examination of the proximal femur and cotyloid cavity specified indications for endoprosthetics, method of the pedicle fixation and the scope of the intervention. 6-month to 8-year outcomes are available. Overall functional results are satisfactory: all the patients but 2 (aged 64-66, underwent unipolar endoprosthetics) could walk without support.
