| Abstract: | We present the case of a patient who, after undergoing unilateral total hip arthroplasty (THA), achieved pain reduction in the contralateral hip accompanied by restoration of the radiographic joint space. We conducted gait analysis to clarify the dynamic factors affecting the natural course of osteoarthritis (OA). Our findings revealed that the patient walked with exaggerated adduction of the hip following the contralateral THA, causing substantial regeneration of joint loading. |
