ORTHOPAEDICS:  Hip and Knee Replacement /Resurfacing

HIP REPLACEMENT - using either US or German made prosthesis : Hip surgery - info

Advantages of Hip Resurfacing

• Femoral head is preserved.
• Femoral canal is preserved and no associated femoral bone loss with future revision. Also, the risk of micro fracture of femur with uncommented stem implantation is eliminated.
• Larger size of implant "ball" reduces the risk of dislocation significantly.
• Stress is transferred in a natural way along the femoral canal and through the head and neck of the femur. With the standard THR, some patients experience thigh pain as the bone has to respond and reform to less natural stress loading.
• Use of metal rather than plastic reduces osteolysis and associated early loosening risk.

Use of metal has low wear rate with expected long implant lifetime
