General information
Unlike total hip replacement, the BHR hip resurfaces just a few centimeters of bone, preserving your original joint. The BHR hip is not unlike a cap for a tooth.
Because this technologically advanced surgical procedure resurfaces rather than replaces the end of your femur (thighbone), you may participate in physical activity with an implant that is potentially longer-lasting and more stable than total hip replacements.
In fact, one recent study of nearly 1,000 patients showed the patients who received hip resurfacing experience less thigh pain and function at a higher level of physical activity than patients of a similar age, gender and activity level who received a traditional hip replacement.
