Abstract
1. Nine cases of stress fracture of the pelvis after total hip replacement are reported, five after Ring replacement and four after a McKee. In none of the cases did the fractures unite. 2. In three cases infection was probably an important cause of the fracture. In six cases there was no infection. Only one presented a history of injury. 3. The combination of the various factors that might have caused the stress fractures is discussed.
