Guest guest Posted April 4, 2004 Report Share Posted April 4, 2004 Hi, I'm fairly new to this condition and am interested in the resurfacing surgery. My problem is just unilateral. I either have AVN w/osteoarthritis or Osteo Arthritis w/bone marrow edema. The docs I've seen vary on their opinion. I have no risk factors for Avascular Necrosis. They all say that I will need my hip replaced sooner or later. What is Hemi-resurfacing? Is this done by all the resurfacing docs or just a few? Can some people tell me which insurance plans have covered the resurfacing surgery? I would like to point to these companies if I need to appeal to my plan.
