About this title

Synopsis

Surface arthroplasty (surface replacement) of the hip with metal-on-metal bearings is one of the fastest growing areas within the field of joint surgery. Chapters in part one provide readers with information on a wide range of hip resurfacing designs. Part two focuses on clinical follow-up to hip resurfacing. Part three discusses a variety of operative techniques, and the final section provides readers with case studies and conclusions.

Key Features: a standard work for orthopaedic surgeons and all those involved in HRA; reviews and compares all the major hip resurfacing prostheses, their key design features, relevant surgical techniques and clinical results; clinical follow-up of the patient is discussed.

Contents: Part 1 Hip resurfacing designs: The ACCIS hip resurfacing prosthesis; The ADEPT® hip resurfacing prosthesis; The DePuy Articular Surface Replacement (ASR) hip resurfacing prosthesis; The Birmingham Hip Resurfacing (BHR) prosthesis; The Conserve® Plus hip resurfacing prosthesis; The CormetTM hip resurfacing prosthesis; The Durom hip resurfacing prosthesis; The ESKA hip resurfacing prosthesis; The ICON hip resurfacing prosthesis; The MRS Modular Hip Resurfacing prosthesis; The MIHR International® hip resurfacing prosthesis; The MITCH hip resurfacing prosthesis; The BIOMET RECAP hip resurfacing prosthesis; The ROMAX® hip resurfacing system; The Tornier DynaMoM hip resurfacing prosthesis; Design issues and comparison of hip resurfacing prostheses. Part 2 Clinical follow-up: Clinical follow-up of the hip resurfacing patient; Acoustic phenomena in hip resurfacing; Rehabilitation of patients after hip resurfacing; The use of radiography to evaluate hip resurfacing; The use of bone scintigraphy to evaluate hip resurfacing; The use of ultrasound to evaluate hip resurfacing; The use of Computerized Tomography (CT) to evaluate hip resurfacing; The use of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to evaluate hip resurfacing; The use of Positron Emission Tomography (PET) to evaluate hip resurfacing; The use of dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) to evaluate hip resurfacing; The use of metal ion level measurements to evaluate hip resurfacing; The practical application of metal ion level measurement in evaluating hip resurfacing. Part 3 Operative techniques: Comparing surgical techniques in hip resurfacing; Surgical technique in hip resurfacing: The modified posterior approach; Surgical technique in hip resurfacing: The anterior approach; Tips and tricks for successful hip resurfacing; Surgical instruments in hip resurfacing; Anaesthesia in hip resurfacing; Revision surgery for failed hip resurfacing. Part 4 Failure modes in hip resurfacing; Retrieval studies showing failure modes in hip resurfacing; Case studies of femoral neck fractures in hip resurfacing; Case studies of femoral loosening and femoral head collapse in hip resurfacing; Case studies of acetabular loosening in hip resurfacing; Case studies of acetabular malposition and high wear in hip resurfacing; Case studies of suspected metal allergy in hip resurfacing. Part 5 General issues: The patient experience of hip resurfacing; Comparing hip resurfacing arthroplasty (HRA) and total h
