Women have higher hip implant revision rates in Kaiser study
A Kaiser Permanente study of over 35 000 hip surgeries at 46 hospitals found 2.3 percent of women and 1.9 percent of men needed revision surgery after about three years. Researchers cite smaller joints and bone structure, with potential factors like bone density loss contributing to the gap. Funding came from the FDA and lead author Maria Inacio notes the finding is a small but meaningful signal for longer term research.
