I had a left total hip replacement almost 2 years ago (will be 2 years come May) and had I realized it was my hip and not my back, I would have had it done sooner! Mine was the traditional surgery, and the prosthesis a press-fit. In surgery for 1 hour, and out of the hospital in 3 days. I can't say enought about the skill of my dr. and the care I received from my nurses. Anyone contemplating this procedure, new technology or otherwise, it's worth it to wake up pain free (well, mild incisional discomfort, but I could live with that!)
