It depends on the doctor but they should not. But why would you get a hip replacement? I feel so sorry for you. I would hate to have a fake hip...

For a primary hip, approximately 2-5% of hips will dislocate according to the literature. However, depending on your activity level (lots of bending over), health (good or poor muscle tone), and prior indications (eg fractured neck of femur), it may be higher.
