Decreased head-neck ratio diameter and component malposition in total hip arthroplasty are factors known to result in impingement, increased rates of dislocation, wear and failure. In addition to these complications, impingement of the femoral neck on the acetabular component of a hip resurfacing may result in femoral neck fracture and loosening of the acetabular component.

I have struggled to find the words necessary to describe how Dr.… Read the rest

Read Complete Study by clicking hereMay 2011Despite being proclaimed as “The operation of the century,” total hip arthroplasty is far from an ideal procedure. In fact, one study found that “in spite of a good hip score, only 43% of patients had all of their expectations completely fulfilled,” said Robert L. Barrack, MD, chief of service, Orthopedic Surgery, at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, Mo. Although patient selection is rarely an |

Can I have an MRI after I had a hip resurfacing? This is a question many people ask after having a hip resurfacing. This is Dr. Rubinstein’s answer: MRI is perfectly safe with any orthopaedic implant (joint replacements, fracture hardware screws and others). The implants may degrade the picture quality in the areas right near the implants but no harm will come to the implants or the surrounding bone. Pacemakers are another story and are |
Read Complete Article Here By Robert Trace September 17, 2009 MANCHESTER – Researchers here reported that adverse soft tissue reactions following metal-on-metal hip arthroplasty are typically due to increased wear of the bearing surfaces, and patients with smaller femoral heads may be particularly susceptible to these complications. In an independent center study, David Langton, FRCS, and colleagues in the Joint Replacement Unit at the University Hospital of North Tees in Stockton, England, reviewed 155 Birmingham |
DO NOT WAIT I am a retired 69 year old surgeon. For most of my life I had been super fit: competitive squash 5-6 times a week, heli-skiing, windsurfing, sailing, single handicap golf etc. I left it too late to have surgery and I find this is a common story (see Jimmy Connors, Jack Nicklaus, etc.) As there are now two options: BHR and THR, this has become important. Like most people, trouble started with |

5/1/08 Yes, it is true that minimally invasive approach has been proven not to have great benefits over a conventional incision in terms of blood loss, pain , or speed of recovery in the same surgeons hands. It is only of cosmetic value. All studies to investigate this have been done on two groups of patients in which a single surgeon employs the two approaches in the diff groups. When a surgeon who is capable |
Failed BHR & surgeon experience August 02, 2008 I am 18 months post LBHR and I am posting today with the hope that I can spare anyone contemplating the resurfacing procedure the consequences of choosing a surgeon with insufficient experience. I chose a surgeon who had only recently trained in England, I was his 7th resurfacing procedure. I justified the decision because he was local and had a stellar reputation. I foolishly reasoned that he |
