Guest guest Posted November 18, 2008 Report Share Posted November 18, 2008 I have had a total hip replacement since 1991 with revision in 2005. In September I had a total dislocation of the prosthesis. Has anyone else had a dislocation this long post op? I also have bilateral knee replacements.

Guest guest Posted November 18, 2008 Report Share Posted November 18, 2008 Hi Kathy, I have not had a dislocation, I just had my right hip replaced in September But I am now curious what prosthesis you had and how it happened. How horrible for you! I am sometimes a bit cavalier with my hip precauitions , so your story might be good for us on the list to hear, you have a bit of experience. I also have bil knees replacements. Did you get another revision then? Take care, Patti Patti Widener NCTMWidener Piano Studiohappykeys88@...

No revision was necessary, after a failed attempt in the E.R. to reduce the dislocation, went to surgery for a closed reduction. Hip is doing well and I finish P.T. on Wednesday. > > I have had a total hip replacement since 1991 with revision in 2005.In September I had a total dislocation of the prosthesis.
