    Abstract:
    As the need for hip and knee replacement continues to increase, technical and material changes have allowed a dramatic evolution in the way that degenerative, inflammatory and traumatic arthritis are managed. Advances include new bearing surfaces which should have greater longevity, minimal incision joint replacement, computer guidance and partial joint resurfacing for younger patients. These advances and their implications are discussed.
