title: Evaluation of patients with pain following total hip replacement.
abstract: Ongoing pain after total hip replacement is a source of frustration to both the patient and the surgeon. A structured approach to the evaluation of patients with postoperative pain is essential. The key to such an approach is a meticulous patient history and physical examination. The results of relevant investigations allow an effective treatment plan to be quickly implemented.
