I wanted to share my story about how Dr. Rector of Boulder, Colorado, and the BHR gave me my life back. About 4 years ago I began to have extreme pain in my right groin area for about a month, then it switched to my left groin. For the following year I suffered in so much pain that I could only get about 3 hours sleep each night. Each time I rolled over while sleeping |
My story is that my right hip was deteriorating over about 8 years. Because I am a sports person (playing squash for 42 years and wanting to continue), I regularly sought assistance from chiropractors, hysiotherapists and other such people with very limited affect. It was only this year (2007 when I was 59) that my latest chiropractor suggested that I seek out the latest technology advances because, with his limited knowledge, he was just trying |
I’m 47 years old. I underwent the BHR procedure on December 31st, the 4th of 8 done that day by Dr. Snyder at Newton/Wellesley Hospital. I recovered and finally got to my room by 5:00. I couldn’t sleep too well overnight but did not experience much pain. I was discharged at 3:00 yesterday, just 27 1/2 hours after my procedure began. My wife is a nurse practitioner so I have terrific support. The other guy |
Patrick at top of Mt. Princeton Colorado I am an active 45 year old male. Including weight lifting, hiking, and walking. My right hip began to lock-up and cartilage was breaking off the joint socket wall for 2 years prior to my hip resurfacing operation. I had two arthroscopic operations to remove the broken cartilage. A short time after my second operation my hip capsule collapsed. I was then walking femor head on socket. It |
In the summer from 2005 I went to Belgium for resurfacing from my right hip by Koen de Smet. I was born with hip dysplasia and had a pelvic osteotomy 30 years ago. The last few years I had a lot of pain and couldn’t walk more than 50 meters without a crutch. I couldn’t sleep without painkillers and I feel like an 80 year old woman while I was 46 years on that moment. |

June 25, 2009 My name is Wilma and I live in Sittard in the Netherlands. Three and a half years ago I had an operation of my left hip and I became a resurfacing hip. Very soon after this operation my hip and my left leg gave pain problems. The surgeon from the hospital in Sittard told me that these pains were caused by my back. I therefore was sent to the pain clinic and |
This 51-year-old, male, RBHR hippy is now repaired and freed from the right hip OA that had been the monkey on my back for the past 5 years in the form of pain, limping, and decreased ROM. Being from Rochester, MN, the most common question I get is “why would you want to go over to Madison, WI, for your resurfacing surgery, when you have the Mayo clinic in your back-yard?” The answer, simply put, |
Surgical Approaches for Hip Resurfacing-Explaining the anterior approach and the posterior approach
Peter Brooks MD
Cleveland Clinic
Most hip replacement and resurfacing surgery in the USA, about
80%, is performed through a posterior approach. About 20% of US
hip surgeons prefer some variation of an anterior approach (antero-lateral,
direct lateral, trans-gluteal, or true anterior). Anterior
approaches are also more common in Europe and Canada.
In the posterior approach, the incision, dissection, and
dislocation of the … Read the rest
September 16, 2007 Hi All, This is an important topic that is always a worry so I feel a comment is warranted here. First, fortunately infections are rare so you should not all go running around being paranoid about getting one. A little common sense and care can prevent most infections. Antibiotics for dental work is an easy thing to do and very effective in preventing circulating bacteria from the mouth. As for cuts and |

things about Dr. Su.My hips feel strong enough to stand with no issues and no crutches 7 days out.

I recently got my hip resurfaced on 10/29/09 by Dr. Peter Lammens in Denver, Colorado. I am 28 years old and was dealing with a lot of pain in my hip due to arthritis as a result of a hip fracture I suffered when I was 13 years old. I was very concerned about my age and the possible down sides of having a THR, so I met with Dr. Lammens and he told me |
