Core Tip Revision total hip arthroplasty (THA) after liver transplantation (LT) is extremely rare and represents a major clinical challenge due to chronic immunosuppression, multiple comorbidities, and a high risk of perioperative complications. We present a case of a patient who previously underwent two LT for chronic hepatitis B and later required revision THA owing to recurrent prosthesis dislocation and periprosthetic fracture. Clinical outcomes were assessed using functional scales, including the Harris Hip Score and the Visual Analog Scale for pain, demonstrating significant postoperative improvement. This case highlights the importance of multidisciplinary management and careful perioperative planning in high-risk transplant recipients.
