A reduced femoral offset in total hip replacement has been thought to be disadvantageous. We reviewed the results of 54 consecutive primary total hip replacements in 49 patients (mean age of 68 years) performed between August 1990 and December 1994, with a mean follow-up of 8.8 years (SD 2.1). The mean pre-operative femoral offset for these hips was 41 mm (SD 7.4). All patients received a low-offset Charnley stem and a polyethylene cup inserted by a single surgeon.
