What is Hip resurfacing?
Hip Resurfacing or Surface
Replacement Arthroplasty is a
bone-conserving alternative to
conventional Total Hip
Replacement (THR). Unlike Total
Hip Replacement, hip Resurfacing
does not involve the removal of the
femoral head and neck nor removal
of bone from the femur. Rather, the
head, neck and femur bone is
preserved in an effort to facilitate
future surgery should it be
necessary and to enable the
patient to take advantage of newer technology or treatments in the future. The
current generation of Hip Resurfacing devices utilizes metal bearings that
have demonstrated a much higher level of wear resistance as well as reduced
bone loss and inflammatory tissue reaction about the hip joint as compared to
metal-polyethylene bearings.
Advantage of Hip Resurfacing:
There is several advantage of Hip Resurfacing surgery:
1. Femoral head is preserved.
3. 2. Femoral canal is preserved and no associated femoral bone loss with future
revision. Also, the risk of microfracture of femur with uncemented stem
implantation is eliminated.
3. Larger size of implant "ball" reduces the risk of dislocation significantly.
4. Hip resurfacing patients are more likely than total hip replacement patients
to recover a natural gait.
5. Stress is transferred in a natural way along the femoral canal and through
the head and neck of the femur. With the standard THR, some patients
experience thigh pain as the bone has to respond and reform to less natural
stress loading.
6. Use of metal rather than plastic reduces osteolysis and associated early
loosening risk.
7. Use of metal has low wear rate with expected long implant lifetime.
Special risks of Hip Resurfacing:
There is risk related to almost every surgery, some
related to Hip Resurfacing are:
1. There is some risk of the femoral neck breaking.
This risk can be nearly eliminated by proper
patient selection, correct angle of implantation of
the device and avoiding notching the neck when
preparing the femoral head in surgery.
2. Lack of long-term track record. Current device has
only been used for about 10 years.
3. Despite known low wear rate, longevity and long term effects of wear debris
are unknown.
4. For some surgeons, the Hip Resurfacing procedure has a longer surgical
time. The procedure requires somewhat more skill of surgeon. Because of
this, a learning curve" has been documented where it is common for a
surgeon to have more complications in his first series of patients.
Hip resurfacing India:
India is promoting the "high-tech healing" of its private healthcare sector as a
tourist attraction. The government hopes to encourage a budding trade in
medical tourism, selling foreigners the idea of traveling to India for low-cost but
world-class medical treatment. Merging medical expertise and tourism became
government policy when finance minister, called for India to become a "Global
health destination". Hospitals of Bangalore, Mumbai and Delhi provide best
medical facilities for Hip Resurfacing in India. In India, medical treatment is
4. not only fast but also costs a fraction of what it costs in USA or Europe. Even
tele-consultancy is available connecting U.S. and European medical experts to
Indian facilities for expert opinions and transmission facilities. To know more
