Bipolar hemiarthroplasty(BPHA) for displaced intracapsular neck of femur fractures(DICNOF) is a controversial topic as conflicting evidence exists. The most common reason for revision to total hip arthroplasty(THA) from BPHA is acetabular erosion. In our study, we sought to quantify the direction of migration of the bipolar head within the first 3 years post-operatively. A proportional index in the horizontal and vertical planes of the pelvis were used to quantify migration. This method removed the need to account for magnification and rotation of the radiographs.Abstract
