What is done when a hip resurfacing fails?

Hip Resurfacing News Posted on September 17, 2015 by Patricia WalterSeptember 17, 2015
Dr. De SmetWhat will be done when a resurfacing fails?

A normal primary THR can be done. In rare cases a revision to another resurfacing is still possible. The procedure needed depends on the reason for revision. If the femural head requires a revision, due to wear, a large diameter modulair head on stem could be placed, with a perfect fitting into the existing cup. Even the cup can be revised with a new resurfacing cup with a one size larger diameter. We have done extensive research on this topic together with the manufacturers of the device.

M S’s Unsuccessful BHR by Dr. Justin Klimisch and Revision to THR by Mr. McMinn 2011

Hip Resurfacing News Posted on September 8, 2015 by Patricia WalterSeptember 9, 2015

Approximately 4 years ago I underwent a BHR procedure by Dr. Justin Klimisch which resulted in a disastrous outcome: I sustained significant nerve damage during the procedure to my femoral nerve (lost all function in my quadriceps and hip flexor muscles) as well a suspected traction injury to the whole nerve bundle which runs posterior to the hip resulting in drop foot.

I continued to experience significant nerve pain and mechanical hip pain and clunking after the hip resurfacing surgery. Eleven months later it was determined by experts that the BHR components installed were over-sized for my small frame, increasing … Read the rest

Read Rick’s Original Story about his BHR and Revision here

In October 2013, against all odds and at 60 years of age, Rick Rubio surprised himself by placing 28th in his age group in the Ironman World Championship. He managed a personal best time of 12:39.

Just a few short years earlier no one – not even Rick – would have believed this accomplishment could be possible.

STAYING ALIVE, LIVING LIFE

Born in South Bay, San Francisco into a family of addiction, Rubio’s parents and older brother exposed him to drugs and alcohol at an early age. A poor student … Read the rest

Izumi’s Hip Resurfacing with Dr. De Smet 2004

January 6, 2013

I had my LBHR done by Dr. DeSmet over 9 years ago. Since I have had no problems since then, I haven’t been on this sight. About 2 months ago I suddenly started having pain as well as a lot of grinding and clunking. This sight was very informative and helpful to me back then so I find myself here again in search of answers.

My recent X-rays show no problems. Cobalt/Chromium blood tests came back really high. However here is the confusing part. The joint suddenly feels a … Read the rest
