Uncemented primary hip replacement

This 43 year old woman had been suffering with bilateral hip pain for many years. She also had deformities of both hip such that she could not stand up straight and had to stoop forwards. She underwent bilateral (both sides) hip replacement performed on the same day. The prostheses used here are uncemented and the bearing surfaces are ceramic. She was delighted with the outcome of surgery and was able to stand up straight for the first time in years.
