Article on resurfacing was created by orthorunner
There's an article in the NYT about the "new" option of hip resurfacing for younger patients; it's kind of interesting to read how the media approaches it so I thought I'd post it:
www.nytimes.com/2007/04/14/healt ... ei=5087%0A

If that doesn't work, it's an article called "Hip surgery with a future"
Enjoy!

peoples opinion vary, especially older surgeons who were burned with all the problems of previous generations of resurfacing. Take what your local sales rep tells you with a grain of salt
