| Popis: | This review of hip resurfacing surgery covers three generations of design progress. The first, spanning from the 1920s to the 1940s, represents early attempts at resurfacing the femoral head as a "mold arthroplasty." The second generation (1950s to the 1980s) represents the introduction of an acetabular component. The third generation (1990s to present) represents a worldwide resurgence of this technology into the hands of joint replacement surgeons. The clinical results and modes of failures in each of these technologies is discussed to provide surgeons a basis for educated decisions on technologies and patient selection for optimizing long-term success. |
