[Spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia tarda: bilateral total arthroplasty of the hip].

Abstract

A brother and sister with spondylo-epiphyseal dysplasia tarda developed severe premature osteoarthritis of the hips and were treated with bilateral hip replacement in young adult life. The clinical results are good and the radiographic evaluation showed no evidence of loosening at a mean follow-up of five years.
