Zusammenfassung: | Endoprosthetics of elderly people provides satisfactory functional results. On the other hand, endoprosthetics of young people should be pos poned as long as possible to prolong anatomical and functional life of joints A long term submersible endoapparatus provides unloading of the hip joint against a background of conservation of hip joint function in young patients, thereby prolonging for 5.25 years anatomical and functional life of hip joints and delaying endoprosthetics. |
