Uncemented hip resurfacing in patients over 65: 16-year outcomes from a large, single-surgeon series

This is the first known long-term study to demonstrate that hip resurfacing patients over 65 can achieve implant survivorship rates equivalent to younger resurfacing patients and superior to national total hip arthroplasty registry benchmarks. These findings challenge age-based restrictions and support expanded candidacy for hip resurfacing in select older adults when managed by experienced surgeons.
