Summary

This study looks at how fat buildup in hip muscles relates to hip osteoarthritis and less favorable recovery after hip replacement surgery. While it is known that weak gluteal muscles might cause problems, it is not yet proven if this specifically leads to hip dislocation after surgery. The goal of this study is to compare fat buildup in gluteal muscles between patients who had a hip dislocation soon after surgery and those who did not.

Conditions

• Dislocation
• Total Hip Arthroplasty
• Muscle Degeneration

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
DIAGNOSTIC_TEST	Dislocation	One episode of total hip dislocation diagnozied on Xray within 2 years of surgery
DIAGNOSTIC_TEST	No dislocation	No experience of dislocation within two years post-surgery
