Various X - Rays of my Hip Surgery
During my Total Hip Replacement Operation, I suffered some set backs - here are a few X - Rays to explain
Extended Shaft prothesis
Both implants in position
At last I now have two functional total hip replacements. As the X- Ray shows they are of a different type due to my allergic reaction to Nickle, Palladium, Mercury and Copper Sulphate
This X - Ray is the stage 2 revision in its' final position.
Displaced Hip joint
Operation scar
This X -Ray shows how the femur was split to remove the original implant and how it had to be wired together. The X - Ray also shows the displacement of the Stage 1 revision to the hip.
After undergoing six operations, the incision wound needed 70 clips and a few suctures in order to close the wound
