Birmingham Mid Head Resection Prosthesis - BMHR

Birmingham Mid Head Resection Prosthesis (BMHR)

ARCH (Asian Regional Centre for Hip Resurfacing), where Dr. Bose performs Birmingham Hip Resurfacing (BHR) has been selected to be one of the very few centres worldwide to do BMHR ( Birmingham Mid Head Resection prosthesis). This will be the only centre in Asia to offer the Birmingham Mid Head Resection prosthesis.

Birmingham Mid Head Resection prosthesis is an advancement in the BHR and will expand the indications for hip resurfacing surgery. Birmingham Mid Head Resection prosthesis (BMHR) helps advanced aged patients to have Birmingham Hip Resurfacing.

The BMHR has specifically been designed for patients who have weaker bone in the head of the femur.
In the BMHR more of the weak bone is resected and is replaced with metal.
This will dramatically increase the range of patients who can have this surgery.
X-ray wise it looks almost like the BHR but the amount of bone removed is more. Thus the risk of fracture in post-op is reduced or eliminated for borderline patients.
It is technically complex to do and hence has been released only to select surgeons like Dr.Bose around the world.

Medical Tourism is the act of traveling abroad to receive medical, dental and cosmetic care. Medical Tourism is also called as Medical Travel, Health Tourism, Health Travel and Medical Value Travel. Significantly lower costs for best practice care is usually the primary motivation although some medical tourists go abroad for immediate availability of procedures and unavailable treatments. Patients frequently take advantage of the opportunity to vacation and tour inexpensively in the country they are visiting.
