From Jan. 1991 to Jan. 1994, 11 cases ofdifferent hip lesions with flexon contracture deformity were treated by combination of SmithPeterson and WatsonJones incisions in replacement of hip joint. All of them were followed-up for 1 to 3 years (an average of 1.9 years). According to pain, joint function, the excellent and good results were rated at 90.9%. This showed that from using the combined incisions, the hip joint was very well exposed, and release of hip flexion contracture could be acomplished in the same time. Bleeding fromoperation was reduced and the procedure was simple.
