Kurzbeschreibung/Zielsetzung

Data on the demographic changes over time for hip arthroplasty are rare in Switzerland. The aim of the study was to evaluate the influence of these changes on the distribution of age, gender, operated hip side, place of residence and caseload per surgeon over the last 50 years of hip arthroplasty at the Kantonsspital St. Gallen.
