@cityofsmokingjo BHR is different from THR in that it preserves your femur and there isn’t any other way to resurface the femoral head other than cementing a new layer onto it. THR lops part of the femur off and then sticks an implant into the bone. The implants for cemented THR are totally different to those used for uncemented THR and I think it does make a difference.
