Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA) Comparison Hip Resurfacing Versus Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA)

April 25, 2019 updated by: David F. Scott, MD, Spokane Joint Replacement Center

A Dual Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry Comparison Of Periprosthetic Bone Loss Between Patients Undergoing Hip Resurfacing Surgery And Total Hip Arthroplasty

This study compares the change (loss) of bone mineral density (BMD) that occurs in the proximal femur after hip resurfacing and total hip replacement.

Conditions

Detailed Description

This study compares the change (loss) of bone mineral density (BMD) that occurs in the proximal femur after hip resurfacing and total hip replacement. The goal is to evaluate the bone loss in the proximal femur resulting from hip resurfacing surgery and to compare this to the bone loss in the proximal femur resulting from total hip arthroplasty.
