ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the effect of total hip arthroplasty in treatment of patients with ankylosing spondylitis and bilateral hip bony ankylosis. Methods 43 patients with ankylosing spondylitis and bilateral hip bony ankylosis were randomly divided into observation group (23 cases) and control group (20 cases) in accordance with the principle of informed consent, individually treated by total hip arthroplasty and conservative treatment, the effect of two groups were compared and analyzed. Results In the observation group, the postoperative Harris hip score and the VAS pain score of patients were significantly better than the control group,the differences were all statistically significant between two groups( all P ＜ 0.05 ). Excellent rate of the two groups were 91.3% and 60.0% respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( x2 = 4.328, P ＜ 0.05 ). Conclusion Total hip arthroplasty in treatment of patients with ankylosing spondylitis and bilateral hip bony ankylosis has better clinical effect, and could improve the quality of life of patients, so it was worthy of clinical application.
