Abstract
Purpose:
Determine whether patient pain and function are similar following hip abductor repair in patients without and with total hip arthroplasty (THA).
Methods:
Patients who underwent hip abductor repair were categorized as to whether they had a THA or not. Pre- and postoperative pain and Harris Hip Score (HHS) were recorded and compared between groups.
Results:
There were no differences in improvement in pain level, improvement in HHS, satisfaction with surgery.
Conclusions:
Hip abductor repair leads to similar pain, function, and satisfaction in patients without and with THA.
