In this study,porous-coated,fixed with screwed-system femoral prosthesis and total hip prosthesis composed of screwed-system acetabular cup were applied on 21 dogs of diferent breeds,sexes and ages. total hip arthroplasty (tha) was applied as one sided in all cases. in 7 cases luxation occured and in 5 of them the prostheses were taken out. one of the cases had a second operation for dislocation,but because of reluxation the prosthesis was taken out again. ventral luxation occured in one of the cases but with a second operation success was obtained. aseptic loosening of the femoral implant occured in 1 case,and in 1 case aseptic loosening of acetabular cup occured,both prostheses were taken out. one case died due to another disease. it has been indicated that the 12 cases are going on their livings with the applied prostheses.
