Abstract

Resurfacing arthroplasty according to Wagner was used in 40 hips (31 patients) with coxarthrosis or arthritis. The severe, disabling preoperative pain was eliminated in all patients. There was a considerable increase in range of movement, and the functional results were very good. Of the 24 patients previously in employment but disabled by their hip condition, 22 have returned to their former occupations. Complications occurred in only four cases.
