An extract from RTE's newsreel programme, 'Nationwide' addressing the subject of Hip Resurfacing surgery, and how it changed the life of a Kilkenny farmer. Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon, Tadhg O'Sullivan, is one of the design surgeons of the DePuy ASR Resurfacing implant, and has carried out over 500 resurfacing procedures. He explains how the patient's bone is conserved during the Hip Replacement surgery, and how the procedure, carried out at The Whitfield Clinic in Waterford, restores young and active patients, such as the Kilkenny farmer, to their former lifestyle. Total hip replacement (THR) is a well documented, safe and effective procedure for arthritis hip pain. In younger, more active patients, THR is still effective, but the higher demand these patients place on their prostheses, means that the prosthesis may wear out and need replacing earlier than usual. The treatment option of choice for these younger, active patients is Hip Resurfacing. Instead of the large amount of healthy bone removed during THR, only the surface of the femur and acetabulum are replaced. Resurfacing implants are less likely to wear out, and more likely to allow the patient to return to their active lifestyle. more information can be found at www.articularsurfacereplacement.com
