This included 132 women (93%) with a mean age of 64.3 years (range, 43-84 years), a mean body mass index of 28.2 kg\/m\n                      <jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>\n                      (range, 20.0-41.3 kg\/m\n                      <jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>\n                      ), and an average duration of symptoms of 4.0 years (range, 6 months-20 years). Following surgery, patients underwent a graduated rehabilitation program consisting of hydrotherapy and land-based exercises. Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) were evaluated preoperatively and at 3, 6, 12, and 24 months postoperatively with the Harris Hip Score, Oxford Hip Score, 12-item Short Form Health Survey, and visual analog scale (VAS) for pain. Hip range of motion, hip abduction strength, 30-s single-leg stance (SLS), and 6-minute walk test (6MWT) capacity were evaluated. Patient satisfaction and perceived global rating of change were evaluated postsurgery. Analysis of variance was employed to evaluate clinical improvement over time.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A significant improvement ( P &lt; .05) was demonstrated up to 24 months in all PROMs and clinical scores, including hip range of motion in all planes, hip abductor strength limb symmetry indices (mean \u00b1 SD; presurgery, 90.1% \u00b1 42.5%; 24 months, 102.6% \u00b1 15.0%), and the 6MWT (presurgery, 421.8 \u00b1 91.9 m; 24 months, 509.7 \u00b1 105.1 m). Furthermore, several variables, including pain (VAS and pain scores during the 6MWT and 30-s SLS) and patient-perceived improvement (global rating of change), continued to improve from 12 to 24 months. At 24 months, 95.7% of patients were satisfied with their surgical outcome (excluding 3 patients who underwent reoperation within the 24-month period). There was a 5.6% (n = 8) failure rate over the study period.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n
