Summary

This study looks at two types of hip implants used in total hip replacement for people whose cancer has spread to the hip bone. The goal is to see if one type (dual mobility liner) is as good as the other (constrained liner) at preventing the hip from popping out of place after surgery. About 146 adults with metastatic bone disease in the hip will take part, and their dislocation rates will be checked at 3 and 6 months after surgery.
