Summary

This study looks at two types of hip surgery for people whose cancer has spread to the hip bone. One surgery removes the damaged bone and replaces it with an artificial joint. The other uses metal rods and plates to hold the bone together. The goal is to see which surgery leads to fewer problems, better physical function, and more time at home. About 334 adults with a life expectancy of at least 6 months will take part and be followed for one year.
