one stage bil thr in ddh

lt hip had an abductor lurch 3 month postbil THR . Both were done with a hardinge approach, COC bearings with cone prosthesis as 2 offset options were available. The lurch on the lt persisited, pt has history or surgery on lt side for ddh as an infant and now has trochnateric overgrowth. . Should I consider distalising the trochanter to reduce jt forces
