Title: Operative Treatment of Hip Disease in Patinets with Renal Failure.
Abstract: We experienced 10 cases with hip disease for renal failure for 5 years. 10 patients with an average age of 54.3 years underwent operative treatment. They consisted of 3 hip fractures, 2 avascular necrosis of the femoral head, 2 coxarthrosis' and 3 ectopic calcification of the hip joint. The average hemodialysis period was 9.3 years, and the average follow-up period was 2.9 years.1 femoral neck fracture case showed nonunion after fixation with screws, for which we performed cemented bipolar hemiart-hroplasty. Revision was however required due to osteolysis around the prosthesis. Because the ratio of loosening due to hemodialys is still high, further tmprorement of the operation is neccessary.
