Purpose

Despite the increasing interest and subsequent published literature on hip resurfacing arthroplasty, little is known about the prevalence of its complications and in particular the less common modes of failure. The aim of this study was to identify the prevalence of failure of hip resurfacing arthroplasty and to analyse the reasons for it.

Method

From a multi-surgeon series (141 surgeons) of 5000 Bimingham hip resurfacings we have analysed the modes, prevalence, gender differences and times to failure of any hip requiring revision surgery.
