Interventions
This study includes 2 types of interventions. Group one will undergo hip resurfacing surgery using the Stryker 'MITCH' resurfacing system. The 'MITCH' resurfacing system is in 2 parts - an acetabular cup, and a femoral cap which sits over the femoral head. Group two will undergo surgery using the Stryker 'MITCH' modular system with a Stryker 'Accolade' stem. The 'MITCH' modular system is in 3 parts - an acetabular cup, a femoral component which replaces the femoral head and an 'Accolade' stem which sits in the femur and supports the whole construct. Surgery for group one and group two will take approximately 2 hours. Both groups will be followed for 2 years.
