Radiograph is the keystone in the assessment of hip arthroplasty, as it is available with no metalartifact , at a low cost, and facilitating longitudinal comparison. Pelvic radiograph is significant toassess post-operative hip arthroplasty. So we aim to assess the outcome of the operation throughimmediate radiography for hip arthroplasty and to determine the different types of hip arthroplasty.This prospective study were conducted at surgical specialized hospital and nursing home hospital /medical city complex / Iraq-Baghdad at radiological departments by seimens x.ray machines , in theperiod between ( October 2020 – march 2021) . Fifty patients were included . The results showedafter radiographic evaluation of hip arthroplasty , 90.0% of cases was Equal Leg length. The higherpercentage of vertical center was (90.0 %) for similar compared to lower percentage was(10.0%) nonsimilar , (96.0%) of horizontal center was similar compared (4.0%) non similar .The higher percentageof acetabular inclination was (78.0%) for angle 45degree compared to lower percentage was(6.0%) forangle 50 degree , the higher percentage of acetabular anterversion was (30.0%) for angle 25 degreecompared to lower percentage was(2.0%) for angle 30 degree. The percentage for femoral stem positionwas (100.0%) for neutral alignment . (90.0%) not used of cement mantle compared to (10.0%) usedcement mantle , the thickness in range 2-3mm . (94.0%) was no any early complications compared to(6.0%) was Superficial infection.
