Popis: Simultaneous bilateral total hip arthroplasty (blTHA) offers the benefit of a single episode of care with the potential for lower cumulative operative times and rehabilitation periods than staged bilateral total hip arthroplasty (stTHA). This study analyzes short-term complication rates after blTHA relative to unilateral THA (ulTHA) and projected stTHA in patients with bilateral hip osteoarthritis. We compared complications in a simultaneous blTHA group and a ulTHA group using the National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP) database. ulTHA patients were propensity-matched two-to-one against blTHA patients using morbidity probability score. Thirty-day complication rates were compared. Outcomes in staged procedures (stTHA) were projected by doubling complication rates in ulTHA procedures. There were 805 blTHA patients and 1,610 ulTHA patients used to estimate stTHA outcomes. The rate of major complications or death after blTHA was no higher than the projected stTHA rate (2.0 vs 3.0%, p = 0.179), but minor complications were more common after blTHA than stTHA projections (13.5 vs 6.8%, p
