Summary

This study compares three types of hip replacement surgery—traditional total hip arthroplasty, a neck-preserving Minihip, and hip resurfacing—to see which one best restores the hip's natural biomechanics. Researchers will use CT scans and X-rays before and after surgery to measure hip alignment and offset. 165 adults with hip arthritis will be followed for one year to assess both mechanical and clinical outcomes.
