Mr. Sunil, a marine engineer sustained a broken hip socket. He underwent a fracture fixation elsewhere which was unsuccessful. He sought Hip resurfacing Hip replacement from Dr.A.K.Venkatachalam in Chennai. Owing to the badly damaged acetabulum, Dr.Venkatachalam offered him a short stem or mini hip replacement with durable bearings. This was done in 2012 June. This hip replacement relieved this Indian patient after a year of pain. Advanced short stem hip replacement are a big boon for young patients with hip arthritis.
