[Pat Walter Moderator] 8:00 pm: I am curious about why some doctors use general
anesthesia and
some use spinal with light sedation.

[Dr. Mont] 8:01 pm: Spinal anesthesia is usually less taxing on
the body but can’t be used for long procedures.
[Dr. Mont] 8:02 pm: It only takes me about an hour to do a
resurfacing so I can use either
[Dr. Mont] 8:02 pm: However, if case is going to take longer than
2 hours you often need general or an epidural

You for giving your time

[Chuck] 7:58 pm: How bad would bone spurs have to be to preclude someone from
having a hip resurfacing?
[Dr. Mont] 7:59 pm: For Chuck—Bone spurs on femoral neck
are not a contraindication for resurfacing–but obviously each x-ray would have

neck by the way
[Dr. Mont] 7:59
pm: Almost all arthritis leads to cysts—its just a matter of degree–the
longer you wait or tolerate arthritis in general the larger the cysts will
become—sometimes patients

about Mid Head resection surgeries –  when do you think they will be approved

implants.

feels good so far, but sometimes I still have problems with other joints I read
somewhere that Ibuprofen can “soften bone” –  if that is true can it hurt your
