How many parts are there in my hip resurfacing?
In a hip resurfacing, there are only two components, one resurfacing the femoral head, and one relining the acetabulum. These are made of identical material, cobalt chrome alloy. Hip replacements were made of exactly the same material back in the 1960s, using a design called the McKee-Farrar.
