The paper analyzes total endoprosthesis of the hip joint due to tuberculous coxitis sequelae in 54 patients. Two patients underwent bilateral endoprosthesis. Histological findings confirmed the tuberculous etiology of prior coxitis and provided the policy of pre- and postoperative antituberculous therapy. The supportability and function of the joint recovered 3-4 months after surgery. Arthralgia occurred in 2 patients 4 and 5 years following surgery. In sequelae of tuberculous coxitis, hip joint endoprosthesis by the procedure developed in the clinic yielded good results.
