Abstract
Patients with early stages of osteoarthritis of the hip are treated conservatively: education, physiotherapy, weight reduction, simple analgesics and occasionally nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.
Intertrochanteric and pelvic osteotomies have limited indications, and as surgeons’ experience is also limited, in our days, this type of surgery is seldom performed.
