Hip resurfacing arthroplasty: the Australian experience.
In the last 10 years, resurfacing hip arthroplasty has become a popular option again for treating hip disorders in younger, active patients in some parts of the world. We report the Australian experience with this operation based on the Australian National Joint Replacement Registry and the literature available on the Australian experience in Resurfacing.
