Simultaneous bilateral total hip arthroplasties in nonagenarians

Authors: F. R. Power, D. T. Cawley, P. D. Curtin

Published in: Irish Journal of Medical Science (1971 -) | Issue 4/2017

Abstract

Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is an effective and durable treatment option for hip osteoarthritis (OA). As life expectancy continues to increase, so too will the demand for joint arthroplasty in the 10th decade of life, frequently in cases involving osteoarthritis of both hips. Simultaneous bilateral total hip arthroplasty (SBTHA) is a valuable therapeutic option in appropriately selected patients with bilateral degenerative hip disease, although its use in the very elderly is poorly reported on in the literature. A case of bilateral hip OA successfully treated with SBTHA in a nonagenarian is presented and the literature is reviewed.

WHO estimates that half of all patients worldwide are non-adherent to their prescribed medication. The consequences of poor adherence can be catastrophic, on both the individual and population level.

Join our expert panel to discover why you need to understand the drivers of non-adherence in your patients, and how you can optimize medication adherence in your clinics to drastically improve patient outcomes.
