Abstract
In this chapter, the relevant tools for outcome and quality assessment after cemented THA are presented. Success can be measured very differently and both patient and surgeon perception are important. The value of clinical scoring systems and the importance of serial radiographic assessment are discussed. The quality of the cement mantle has a greater significance on long-term outcome than the design of the prosthesis. The surgeon remains the greatest variable! © 2005 Springer Medizin Verlag Heidelberg.
