Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
Charnley arthroplasty demonstrates excellent long-term survivorship (92% at 13 years) in patients with coxarthrosis, particularly in women and older patients.
We present a 10-15-year follow-up of 629 hips in 555 patients operated on with a Charnley arthroplasty for coxarthrosis. Survivorship analysis showed a 92 percent prosthesis survival after 13 years, with results better in women and in higher age groups.
