DePuy ASR Resurfacing in Toronto

[Guest guest]

As I mentioned a couple weeks ago, Dr. u of Jewish General

Hospital in Montreal has performed the first metal-on-metal hip resurfacings

in North America using the DePuy ASR (Articular Surface Replacement) device.

They are holding a press conference on Thursday, so surfacehippies in Canada

might see some coverage of this in your media at the end of the week.

I guess they don't mention that other manufacturers have been doing this for

awhile Oh well.
