Article Abstract
We review the history and literature of hip resurfacing arthroplasty. Resurfacing and the science behind it continues to evolve. Recent results, particularly from the national arthroplasty registers, have spread disquiet among both surgeons and patients. A hip resurfacing arthroplasty is not a total hip replacement, but should perhaps be seen as a means of delaying it. The time when hip resurfacing is offered to a patient may be different from that for a total hip replacement. The same logic can apply to the timing of revision surgery. Consequently, the comparison of resurfacing with total hip replacement may be a false one. Nevertheless, the need for innovative solutions for young arthroplasty patients is clear. Total hip replacement can be usefully delayed in many of these patients by the use of hip resurfacing arthroplasty.

Degenerative gluteal tears associated with hip arthroplasty.
BMC Musculoskelet Disord
January 2025
Midlands Orthopaedics & Neurosurgery, 1910 Blanding Street, Columbia, SC, 29201, USA.
Background: Unrepaired chronic abductor tears may be a cause of residual pain and weakness after hip arthroplasty, but the current incidence is unclear.
Methods: From 1994 to 2009, the senior surgeon performed 1628 hip resurfacing and 864 total hip arthroplasties without identifying any gluteal tears. We recognized our first case of concomitant abductor tear during a hip resurfacing procedure in April 2009.
Micro-CT Assessment During Embedding of Prototype Ti Alloy Multi-Spiked Connecting Scaffold in Subchondral Trabecular Bone of Osteoarthritic Femoral Heads, Depending on Host BMI.

Adult Spine Orthopaedics Department, W. Dega Orthopaedic and Rehabilitation Clinical Hospital, Poznan University of Medical Sciences, 28 Czerwca 1956 Street 135/147, 61-545 Poznan, Poland.
The prototype of a biomimetic multi-spiked connecting scaffold (MSC-Scaffold) represents an essential innovation in the fixation in subchondral trabecular bone of components for a new generation of entirely cementless hip resurfacing arthroplasty (RA) endoprostheses. In designing such a functional biomaterial scaffold, identifying the microstructural and mechanical properties of the host bone compromised by degenerative disease is crucial for proper post-operative functioning and long-term maintenance of the endoprosthesis components. This study aimed to explore, depending on the occurrence of obesity, changes in the microstructure and mechanical properties of the subchondral trabecular bone in femoral heads of osteoarthritis (OA) patients caused by the MSC-Scaffold embedding.

Südtiroler Sanitätsbetrieb, Department Orthopaedic Surgery, Brixen, Italy.
Background: Unrestricted kinematic alignment (uKA) in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) has the theoretical advantage of reproducing patients' constitutional alignment and restoring the pre-arthritic joint line position and obliquity. However, modifications of the original uKA technique have been proposed due to the potential risk of mechanical failure and instability. Given the significant variability in soft tissue behavior within the same bony morphology group, uKA pure knee resurfacing could be occasionally detrimental.

Kangbuk Samsung Hospital, Sungkyunkwan University School of Medicine, Seoul, Korea.
Purpose: Hip resurfacing arthroplasty (HRA) is recommended for younger patients seeking higher levels of activity. However, femoroacetabular cup impingement (FACI) between the femoral neck and acetabular prosthesis remains a concern. This study aimed to determine the incidence, risk factors, and prognostic consequences of FACI after HRA.

Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Kyung Hee University College of Medicine, Kyung Hee University Medical Center, 26 Kyunghee-daero, Dongdaemun-gu, Seoul, 02447, Korea.
Purpose: To compare the complication rates between deficient patellae (remnant patellae after component removal) and non-resurfaced patellae after 1.5-stage exchange arthroplasty for periprosthetic joint infection and identify risk factors for complications of deficient patellae.
Methods: Complications in 76 deficient patellae (group D) and 41 non-resurfaced patellae (group N), with a minimum follow-up of 2 years after 1.
