Abstract
The purpose of the study was to assess whether patients who undergo hip resurfacing arthroplasty are able to take part in sporting activity following surgery. Sporting activity before and after surgery was assessed by means of a questionnaire in 43 patients who underwent a total of 51 hip resurfacing procedures. Thirty-three hips (65 %) participated in sports before surgery. This increased to 47 (92 %) following surgery. Fourteen out of the 18 hips (78 %) that did not participate in sports before surgery went on to take part in at least one sport following surgery. There were also significant increases in intensity and frequency of sports participation following surgery. In conclusion, patients who participate in sports before surgery are able to return to sports following the procedure. Furthermore a significant proportion of patients who did not do any sports before surgery are able to take part in sports after surgery. Verf.-Referat
