Simultaneous primary bilateral hip resection arthroplasty


ABSTRACT: Hip resection arthroplasty is a useful procedure for the management of complex hip problems and in patients with high surgical and anesthetic risk factors. Unilateral procedures performed for failed total hip arthroplasty have been shown to be successful for pain relief with acceptable functional outcomes; however, to our knowledge, no research exists on simultaneous bilateral hip resection arthroplasty for femoral head osteonecrosis. We present two cases of single-stage bilateral hip resection arthroplasty performed under singular anesthetic procedures for femoral head osteonecrosis. The patients were each able to stand for transfers postoperatively and had no deterioration in pain or function. These two cases demonstrate that satisfactory pain control with preservation of function may be achievable with bilateral hip resection arthroplasty procedures in patients who are not a candidate for more advanced reconstructive procedures.
