Brief Summary:
Total hip replacement surgery is considered to be a very successful surgical procedure for the treatment of degenerative joint disease. The purpose of the study is to evaluate a large size (36mm, 40mm or 44mm) femoral (hip) head called the LFIT™ Anatomic CoCr Femoral Head (Low Friction Ion Treatment). The large size femoral heads will be used with the Trident® X3® polyethylene (plastic) inserts and will be compared with a historical control. Study Hypothesis: The linear wear rate for hips implanted with the LFIT™ Anatomic CoCr Femoral Head is no worse than 0.08 mm wear per year at 5 years post-surgery.
