Abstract
Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is performed for pain relief in patients with osteoarthritis of the hip joint. After THA, patients may recover muscle mass and physical function. Muscle quality is the main parameter used to indicate intramuscular fat content, and it is related with muscle function in older individuals. However, how THA affects muscle quality, as determined by echo intensity (EI), is not well understood. The purpose of this study was...
