Risk factors for postoperative pulmonary complication (PPC) after total hip arthroplasty (THA) are poorly studied. In addition, the risk factors associated with revision THA may differ from those associated with primary THA. The purpose of this study was to compare the incidences of PPC after revision THA with those observed after primary THA, and to evaluate the risk factors.
