Brief Summary:
About ten percent of revision hip replacements will dislocate Although dislocation is not a life-threatening problem it is stressful and costly and requires hospitalization to treat Subjects who have repeated dislocations live with the constant fear of another dislocation The purpose of this study is to test the effectiveness of a large ball prosthesis in preventing post-surgical dislocation A large diameter ball has greater freedom of movement before it impinges therefore theoretically it should not dislocate as easily
