Abstract In May 2006, the US Food and Drug Administration approved the first metal-on-
metal total hip resurfacing. Surgeons wanting to implant this device were required to …

We report the survival at five years of 144 consecutive metal-on-metal resurfacings of the hip
implanted between August 1997 and May 1998. Failure was defined as revision of either the …

Metal-on-metal total hip resurfacing is a bone-conserving reconstructive option for patients
with advanced articular damage. While intended to address several problems with …

Background Metal-on-metal hip resurfacing was developed for younger, active patients as
an alternative to THA, but it remains controversial. Study heterogeneity, inconsistent …

Various approaches have been described for metal-on-metal hip resurfacing. We compared
the posterolateral and direct lateral approaches for complications, pain, function, and …

The survivorship of contemporary resurfacing arthroplasty of the hip using metal-on-metal
bearings is better than that of first generation designs, but short-term failures still occur. The …

We report the survival, radiological and functional outcomes of a single surgeon series of his
first 144 consecutive Birmingham hip resurfacing procedures (130 patients) at a minimum of …
