Glen Mills, Pa. – Join James Zurbach, M.D., orthopedic surgeon for Crozer-Keystone Health System’s Human Motion Institute, for an informative lecture, “What’s New in Artificial Joint Replacement,” Thursday, November 17, 2005, at 1 p.m. at the Crozer Medical Plaza at Brinton Lake, in Glen Mills, off of Route 1. Light refreshments will be served.
Great advances have been made in joint replacement since the first successful hip replacement was first performed in 1969. Over the years, joint replacement surgery has provided hundreds of thousands of people with more mobility and an improved quality of life. Success rates have improved, and today’s patients are offered less invasive options with fewer drawbacks.
During his presentation, Dr. Zurbach will discuss who may benefit from joint replacement, why joint replacement is no longer limited just to the older population, and what alternatives to joint replacement are available. Dr. Zurbach will also discuss the new technologies that aid in the practice of replacing joints. He will describe the advances that offer today’s joint replacement patients less surgery-related pain, smaller surgical incisions, and quicker recovery.
