Larger cups and optimal positioning produced lowest ion
levels and wear
In a review of 585 blood serum evaluations following hip resurfacing, only femoral size and cup inclination were found to have an effect on ion levels, according a study by orthopedic investigators. The findings were presented at the 2010 Annual Meeting of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons. David J. Langton, MRCS, and his colleagues also found that the size of the coverage angle |

I have now done about 185 resurfacings for AVN cases over a 5 year period with many patients crossing the 4 yrs mark. It is interesting to note there has not been a collapse or fracture neck of femur even in a single patient. It is wrong to think that the AVN continues forever in the femoral head. AVN is a one time event in which a strikingly similar sector of necrosis occurs |

Yes, I stood with my cane for most of it, but I could do side bends, some forward and backward bending and I did in fact teach the class! And I’ve been at it ever |
I had my hips resurfaced (Birmingham) a month apart in 2007 when I was 62 due to restrictive hip movement. I had been running competitive 100 m to 800 metre distances but found I could no longer run the curves. Two years after surgery I was back sprinting – running the 400 m and 800 m (and 200 m but only if I am in the outside lane). I was (and still am) the Queensland |
Now for my little surgery story: I had severe OA in my left hip, but held on to |

Information from Dr. Bose at the Asian Regional Center for Hip ResurfacingIntroduction:The Birmingham Mid Head Resection prosthesis is a recently developed hip prosthesis for patients who are keen on having metal on metal hip resurfacing but do not have enough bone stock in their femoral head to accept a resurfacing implant. The BMHR, by its resection level is suitable for these patients thereby opening an avenue for these patients to benefit from the |
