We present a case of symptomatic trochanteric non-union following total hip replacement treated initially with a Dall-Miles grip plate. After failure of this treatment, the patient had a two-stage revision. Trochanteric non-union is one of the well-described complications after total hip replacement. It is frequently difficult to treat, while potentially causing weakness, altered gait and instability of the artificial joint. We believe that reattachment of the trochanter combined with a staged revision of the femoral stem using a posterior approach for the second stage could be a valuable technique to be added to the orthopaedic armamentarium for recurrent and symptomatic trochanteric non-unions after primary total hip replacement, particularly after failure to treat with all the other techniques described in literature.
