What Hip Resurfacing System is Most Popular?

People always ask what hip resurfacing system is the best.  That is a question only history will answer at some time in the future.

A recent survey of 855 Hip Resurfacing Patients on the Yahoo Surface Hippy Discussion Group gives an answer for that group of patients. The survey took place between Oct 16 - Dec 20, 2007.

Some people did not answer the question about what hip resurfacing device was used by their surgeon because they did not know. Therefore, there were only 842 answers. This is a tally of the answers that were given.
