The authors made clinical evaluation of 35 patients after the removal of the hip endoprosthesis due to infection. The age of the patients varied from 18-82 years (average 56 years). Majority of patients (26) estimated the result of treatment as good; only 3 among them wanted a revision hip arthroplasty. Observation revealed good general performance and painless gait in 11 subjects; poor hip stability in 21 cases, and significant functional impairement in 3 patients. Removal of the prosthesis resulted in marked relief of pain, and enhanced the healing of infection.
作者对35例因感染而取出髋关节假体的患者进行了临床评估。患者年龄在18至82岁之间（平均56岁）。大多数患者（26例）认为治疗结果良好；其中只有3人希望进行髋关节翻修术。观察发现，11名患者总体表现良好且步态无痛；21例髋关节稳定性差，3例患者有明显的功能障碍。取出假体后疼痛明显减轻，感染愈合加快。
