Late results of intertrochanteric osteotomy for advanced osteoarthritis of the hip

B A Mogensen et al. Acta Orthop Scand. 1980 Feb.

Abstract

The results are presented of 50 intertrochanteric osteotomies after a minimum observation time of 9.3 years. This method of treatment was found to be of lasting benefit in 86 per cent of the patients. The results encourage us to consider osteotomy also in younger patients with osteoarthritis.
