The objective of this study was to investigate the satisfactions of patients with total hip arthroplasty  THA  in terms of gender. Methods: Primary THA patients who had undergone surgery at least 6 months before, aged 18 years or more, were enrolled in the study. All the patients were operated upon by the same surgeon. Patients with THA were evaluated by clinical status and satisfaction questionnaire, and differences were investigated between genders.Results: In total, 94 patients  35 male, 59 female  were included, with a mean age of 57.1±14.6 years. The ability of the operation to reduce the medical need for pain was the most satisfactory parameter, while activity and work level for the last three months was the least satisfactory parameter for the patients. There was no significant difference between male and female satisfaction level.Conclusion: We found no significant difference between genders regarding clinical status and satisfaction. Thus, we concluded that gender is not important in determining the treatment goals of patients following THA</p></abstract>
