title: [Replacement of hip prostheses--technical aspects and personal results].
abstract: Total hip replacement is considered one of the most effective treatments in modern medicine. Thus in recent years loosening of total hip prosthesis in elderly patients has become increasingly frequent. An analysis and follow-up study of 63 operations with replacement of hip prostheses evaluating the intra- and postoperative complications shows good results in 50 to 85% concerning pain, function and mobility after a 3-year period. The extended operation matches with a significant win of life quality.
