Abstract
Eleven patients with rheumatoid arthritis underwent total joint replacement of both hips and both knees (four-joint arthroplasty). All patients had increased function and decreased pain. Severe rheumatoid arthritis in both hips and knees does not preclude a satisfactory result after replacement arthroplasty.Keywords
