A cost-effectiveness analysis concerning total hip arthroplasty was undertaken in 1984. The analysis included 86 patients submitted to operation in Odense and Svendborg Hospitals. After a follow-up period of five years, revision had proved necessary in one patient but no re-operations were undertaken on account of deep infection or aseptic loosening of the implants. The annual accumulated netto cost of total hip arthroplasty including the costs of readmission was calculated to be approximately 23,000 Danish crowns (2,000 pounds). This must be compared with a lasting marked improvement in the quality of life resulting from operation.
