Outcomes After Metal-on-Metal Hip Resurfacing: Could We Achieve Better Function?

Information about outcomes is important for patients undergoing surgery. Hip resurfacing remains an emergent technology, with further follow-up and investigation warranted. One explanation for suboptimal recovery may be current rehabilitation, originally developed after total hip arthroplasty. Rehabilitation tailored to hip resurfacing, paced for this active population and progressed to higher demand activities, may improve outcomes.
