Need for hip replacements is high
8/1/08

NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Both hip and knee arthritis are common among older adults, but the need for hip replacements seems to far exceed that for knee replacements, new research suggests.
In a study of nearly 7,600 Spanish adults age 60 and older, researchers found that 7 percent had hip osteoarthritis, while 12 percent had osteoarthritis of the knee. Osteoarthritis refers to the common "wear-and-tear" form of arthritis, in which cartilage in the joints gradually breaks down, leading to symptoms like pain and stiffness.
