Hip replacement surgery is an effective treatment, however quantitative outcome does not necessarily delineate the true picture. It is important to triangulate data methods in order to ascertain important contextual factors that may influence patient perception. The aim of the current study was to explore the patient perception on resurfacing hip arthroplasty (RHA) and mini-hip arthroplasty (MHA) in a unique cohort where each patient has received a resurfacing on one side and a mini-hip on the contralateral side using both quantitative and qualitative measures (Fig. 1).Background
