My wife fell and broke her hip and she had a metal replacement at the Esnaf hospital,
Not sure what metal, but had a xray in UK, they told her it was  very good job,

Many years ago I worked for ICI Metals division and one section used to cast various limb joints in Titanium.
The rough castings were sent elsewhere for machining.I assumed Titanium was still being used.

had  a hip replacement 9 months ago in the letoon hospital with DR OSMOND.  1st class very clean and looked after well. went to develt first very costly half the price in letoon. had no insurance the cost was 17.500 lira cheaper than private in england. never been to esnaf so i have no veiws of the hospital. wish you all the best where ever you go. mick a friend of mine has had is hip done a few months ago . seeing how well a woman coped with the operation. he is doing well.  they show the replacement and tell you what you want to know.
