Hip resurfacing arthroplasty (HRA) is an alternative to conventional
total hip arthroplasty for patients with osteonecrosis (ON) of the
femoral head. Our aim was to report the long-term outcome of HRA,
which is not currently known. Long-term survivorship, clinical scores and radiographic results
for 82 patients (99 hips) treated with HRA for ON over a period
of 18 years were reviewed retrospectively. The mean age of the 67
men and 15 women at the time of surgery was 40.8 years (14 to 64).
Patients were resurfaced regardless of the size of the osteonecrotic
lesion.Aims
