After 20 years of experience with hip resurfacing since starting the website in 2005 and talking to thousands of patients, I personally feel that selecting the right surgeon is the MOST IMPORTANT decision you’ll make for your hip resurfacing surgery. Studies show that a surgeon needs at least 100 procedures to become truly experienced. The really experienced surgeons have done 7000 to 10,000 or more hip resurfacings – that’s a huge difference in experience levels.

Background At the turn of the century, over one‑third of total hip arthroplasties comprised metal‑on‑metal bear‑
ings. As this patient population and their implants age, it is crucial to understand associated late failure modes
and expected long‑term functional outcomes. We report the long‑term results of a large metal‑on‑metal unce‑
mented total hip arthroplasty system with unique design characteristics compared to others that have been reported
with high failure rates.… Read the rest

In a recent systematic review and meta-analysis published last month, Resurfacing Hip Arthroplasty (RHA) and Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA) were compared in terms of rate of complications, revisions, functional outcomes, blood loss, operative time, and metal ion levels to provide informantion on the most suitable procedure to
Introduction: The long-term results of total hip replacement (THR) are excellent; however, it has higher failure rates in young and active patients. Hip resurfacing arthroplasty (HRA) is an alternative in such patients and gaining popularity. This review was done to compare complications and outcomes between HRA and THA by assessing the latest level 1 studies comparing the two from the past 10 years…

Conclusion
Patients undergoing HRA improved their preoperative gait pattern of a significant limp to a symmetrical gait at high speeds and on inclines, almost indistinguishable from normal controls. HRA with an approved device offers substantial functional gains, almost indistinguishable from healthy controls.
