Late Results in Vitallium-Mold Arthroplasty of the Hip

W. Alexander Law O.B.E., M.D., F.R.C.S.1

1 LONDON, ENGLAND

1. Vitallium-mold arthroplasty has proved itself a very satisfactory operation in restoring adequate hip-joint function for a period up to and over twelve years after operation.

2. The surgical technique must be exact and the rehabilitation graded to the individual patient, with careful supervision of weight-bearing, particularly in the early stages.

3. When complications arise, further reconstructive measures can be carried out along anatomical lines, with a wide choice of procedures. The incidence of such complications is low, as is the operative mortality.
