Synopsis
This trial randomized 30 patients to either a hip resurfacing system or conventional prosthesis total hip replacement (THR) to compare their gait mechanics over the short term. The 12 week assessment revealed that there were no significant differences between the techniques regarding kinetic, kinematic, or temporal-spatial gait parameter variables of the hip (except for peak abductor moments, whic...
