The author has analysed the results in 14 patients who had a hip arthrodesis carried out 18 years ago. It may be concluded that the vast majority of these patients have generally been satisfied with their condition during this period and that they are capable of performing their physical activities. Most of these patients showed certain changes in the surrounding bonejoint structures, while no lesions of the opposite hip were found. Therefore, the hip arthrodesis merits to be a choice for a correct treatment as long as the other hip is healthy, and the lumbar spine and knee, of the same side, are with no changes. Otherwise, there is no safe surgical method which can provide satisfactory conditions to the patients, implying, no pain in the crippled hip, the ability to be upright for a long period of the day, and the viability for their everyday physical activities.
作者分析了18年前接受髋关节融合术的14例患者的结果。可以得出结论，在此期间，这些患者中的绝大多数总体上对自己的状况感到满意，并且能够进行体育活动。这些患者中的大多数在周围骨关节结构上出现了某些变化，而对侧髋关节未发现病变。因此，只要对侧髋关节健康，同侧腰椎和膝关节无变化，髋关节融合术值得作为一种正确的治疗选择。否则，没有一种安全的手术方法能为患者提供令人满意的条件，即残髋无痛、能够长时间站立以及具备日常体育活动的能力。
