Abstract
Yearly, there are ten thousands of artificial hips implanted around the world. The selection of different types is very wide. The decision on the type that is implanted is influenced by various factors, such as the age and medical status of a patient. The content of the project is a study on different types of endoprostheses that have been implanted to patients in the last ten years. We would like to prove with a research hypothesis that the life span of a bimodular partial hip endoprosthesis equals to or is possibly longer than the use of other hip endoprostheses, and that the application of a bimodular partial endoprosthesis is simpler.
Partial results acquired during the first two years of the research indicate a confirmation of our hypothesis.
