Sept. 16th: 2 - Incision Mini Hip
Union
Memorial Hospital, Baltimore, MD, presents a minimally invasive hip
replacement surgery surgery on Thursday, September 16, 2004, at 4:30
p.m. EDT (2030 UTC). The minimally invasive hip replacement involves an
"image-intensifier," a specialized X-ray machine that allows the
surgeon to assess the precise position of the artificial hip joint in
the body. Through the manipulation of specialized instruments, surgeons
can position the implant based on what they view in the X-ray. The
surgeon can then assemble the patient's new hip through two incisions
of only two inches each - as compared to a 12-inch incision with
traditional hip replacement surgery.
