Over the past 10 years hip resurfacing has become increasingly popular in Europe and North America as an alternative to the more invasive procedure of total hip replacement. Rather than remove the entire femoral head and neck leading to difficulties should the hip replacement need to be revised, resurfacing conserves much more of the patient’s healthy femur and this has been shown to be of great benefit to many patient groups, especially younger and more active patients. Modern Hip Resurfacing includes a huge number of high-quality images designed to guide the reader through the procedure. Mr McMinn is the acknowledged innovator in the technique and has assembled a team of experts in all aspects of the resurfacing procedure, from materials science to the surgical procedure itself. This book represents a comprehensive resource for all orthopedic surgeons wanting to incorporate hip resurfacing into their surgical work and provides a compelling story that reinforces the place resurfacing has taken in the surgeon’s armamentarium.

During the 2010 EFORT Congress in Madrid, many interesting topics relating to tribology in total hip arthroplasty were discussed during a special day devoted entirely to the subject. So successful was the day, and such was the broad interest in the discussions, that EFORT decided that publication of all the presentations would be warmly welcomed by fellow professionals who were unable to attend. This book is the result. It includes detailed information on the different articulating materials and the wear to which they are subject. The various factors that contribute to bearing performance and control wear are thoroughly evaluated, and careful consideration is given to the technology and design solutions proposed with a view to producing low-wearing hip joints. This book will be of interest both to novices who want to learn more about the field and to experienced orthopaedic surgeons wishing to keep abreast of the latest developments.
