Total Hip Replacement (THR) belongs to the most common inpatient operations in Germany, with over 240 000 procedures performed per year. 90% of the artificial joints are still functional at 15 years, and up to 60% at 20 years after surgery. It is essential that the indications for such procedures should be uniform, appropriate, and patient-oriented.
