This paper presents advances in designs of resurfacing arthroplasty endoprostheses that occurred through their historical generations. The critical characteristics of contemporary generation hip resurfacing arthroplasty endoprostheses are given and the failures resulting from the specific generation cemented and short stem fixation of the femoral component are reviewed. On the background of these failures, the critical need arises for an alternative approach to the fixation of components of resurfacing arthroplasty leading towards the first generation of biomimetic fixation for resurfacing arthroplasty endoprostheses. The state of the art of the completed bioengineering research on the first biomimetic fixation for resurfacing arthroplasty endoprostheses is presented. This new design type of completely cementless and stemless resurfacing arthroplasty endoprostheses of the hip joint (and other joints), where endoprosthesis components are embedded in the surrounding bone via the prototype biomimetic multi-spiked connecting scaffold (MSC-Scaffold), initiates the first at all generations of biomimetic endoprostheses of diarthrodial joints.

“…The success of the material for an implant depends on several factors: biocompatibility with the body, the strength of the material, ability to resist wear, and the ability to resist the corrosive conditions of the body. At the time, ivory was the best material that fit these criteria as it can withstand compression forces quite well and is naturally resistant to corrosion inside the body [7]. Additionally, studies done on patients long after they had been given an ivory implant showed that the bone fused well with the ivory implant in most areas [7].…”
