There were no dislocations, and other complications were rare. Pain relief was good to excellent in 87\%. Function, as assessed by ambulatory status, was improved in 79\%. Reasonable longevity of the implants can be expected even in patients <50 years. Total hip arthroplasty is a valuable option for the cerebral palsy patient with incapacitating hip pain.
