Noted that there is a hip talk discussion group as well. Must pop in a see what gives... Interesting discussions. Anyone contemplating this procedure, no matter where they live in the world, then worth while checking through the various posts. And, much discussion on discrepancy in leg length AFTER surgery, whether BHR or THR. Sheesh, there sure does seem to be bad surgical skills out there, doesn't seem hardly to be a single patient who does not end up with leg length discrepancy after surgery! Bad news.

(Was interested to note that there is only one Birmingham Hip Resurfacing surgeon reported as being qualified in this discipline for the whole of France! Sheesh, France is surely 20 years behind the times as so many opine - even some French doctors! Useless - and most worrying.)
