    Normal pregnancy and delivery following total hip joint replacement.

    Abstract

    Total joint replacement procedures should be restricted to older individuals or persons with limited physical activities or life expectancy. However, on occasion a total joint replacement may be the only means to avoid serious disability in a young, otherwise healthy individual. This report of a 19-year-old woman who underwent a total hip joint replacement following unsuccessful treatment of a severely comminuted intracapsular hip fracture. Subsequent to the total hip joint replacement the patient experienced a normal pregnancy and delivery.
