Migration of the implant head after hemiarthoplasty is a problem which appertain to nearly all patients. Article deals with development and utilization of parametrical FE model of the hip joint for numerical analysis of implant head migration. There are two main input parameters for the stress analysis. CE angle representing the shape of acetabulum and direction of the femoral replacement loading. To assess the influence of selected parameters on thr implant migration and to enable easy comparison to patients X-Ray scanning, the analysis was carried out as axially symmetric 2D and 3D contact problem. Ultimate values of first principal stress, third principal stress and sum of displacements were used as a reference magnitude.
