A cost-effectiveness analysis concerning total hip arthroplasty was undertaken in 1984. The analysis included 86 patients submitted to operation in Odense and Svendborg Hospitals. After a follow-up period of five years, revision had proved necessary in one patient but no re-operations were undertaken on account of deep infection or aseptic loosening of the implants. The annual accumulated netto cost of total hip arthroplasty including the costs of readmission was calculated to be approximately 23,000 Danish crowns (2,000 pounds). This must be compared with a lasting marked improvement in the quality of life resulting from operation.
1984年进行了一项关于全髋关节置换术的成本效益分析。该分析纳入了在欧登塞和斯文堡医院接受手术的86例患者。经过五年的随访，有1例患者被证明需要进行翻修手术，但没有因深部感染或植入物无菌性松动而进行再次手术。全髋关节置换术的年度累计净成本（包括再次入院的费用）经计算约为23,000丹麦克朗（2,000英镑）。这必须与手术带来的生活质量的持续显著改善相比较。
