Guest guest Posted July 7, 2004 Report Share Posted July 7, 2004 Hi, I broke my hip over 4 years ago and had a pin and plate put in. I recently learned that I know have AVN and my surgeon said that I would eventually need hip replacement. I read an article about resurfacing and wonder if that might be an option for me. My bone density is very good and I have no osteoprosis. As at least some of the neck of my femor is already compromised and I understand that the neck of the femor is used for the resurfacing procedure, would I even be eligible for this procedure? If it's worth pursuing, how can I get access to doctors in my province of Ontario, Canada and specifically in Toronto? Thanks for your thoughts.
