12 sie 2019 · We aimed to clarify the possibility of using bipolar hip arthroplasty (BHA) for degenerative diseases by examining long-term results postoperatively in 336 hips. Patients’ average age was 61.0 years (range, 34–88 years), and the average follow-up period was 12.5 years (range, 5.0–27.3 years).
