Abstract
Hip replacement has evolved over the years, previously considered exclusively for geriatrics. It changed until it became an elective surgery in various pathologies. Certain conditions predominantly affect one age group. Hip dysplasia predominates in pediatrics, hip osteoarthritis in adults, and post-traumatic in geriatrics. Therefore, the indications for carrying out this procedure vary depending on age.
