We investigate the efficacy of a modified acetabular bone-preparation technique in reducing the incidence of two clinical problems (lack of bone ingrowth and cup shift) identified in hip resurfacing arthroplasty.Advances in Orthopedics. 2018

A prospective analysis has demonstrated improved clinical results and no increased compli- cations when employing MIS techniques for HRA using a posterior approach. KeyActa Orthop Belg. 2012.
The purpose of this study was to compare the clinical outcomes of osteonecrosis (ON) and osteoarthritis (OA) patients after metal-on-metal hip resurfacing arthroplasty (HRA).Journal of Arthroplasty 2017.

Background: The optimal surgical treatment for osteonecrosis of the femoral head has yet to be 20 elucidated. To evaluate the role of femoral fixation techniques in hip resurfacing, we present a 21 comparison of the results for two consecutive groups: Group 1 (75 hips) received hybrid hip 22 resurfacing implants with a cemented femoral component; Group 2 (103 hips) received 23 uncemented femoral components. Both groups received uncemented acetabular components. Conclusions: This study demonstrates a superior outcome for cases of osteonecrosis with 36 uncemented hip resurfacings compared to cases employing hybrid devices.BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders. 2016.
Background: Arthritis secondary to developmental hip dysplasia often mandates implant surgery at a relatively young age. Hip resurfacing arthroplasty (HRA), compared with standard stemmed total hip arthroplasty (THA), affords a more active lifestyle including extreme-motion activities but stimulates concerns pertaining to implant failure. Conclusions: We believe the interventions reported here, combined with sufficient surgeon experience and properly designed implants, afford patients with mild developmental dysplasia a more active lifestyle with favorable implant survival.J Arthroplasty. 2012
We report the results of 58 hip resurfacing arthroplasties (HRA) revised by a single surgeon with an average of 5.2±2.6 years follow-up. The four most common causes for revision were acetabular component loosening, femoral neck fracture,femoral component loosening, and adverse wear related failure (AWRF). In 95% of cases (55/58), the revision bearing was a large metal-on-metal type including in all seven AWRF cases; three cases were revised to ceramic-onpolyethylene. There were two repeat revisions due to acetabular component loosening.
