    I have had revision surgery to remove 5% of a pseudo tumour (and also replace the metal on poly parts with metal on ceramic).   a year and a half later the pseudo tumour has returned.  I feel that it was caused by wear of the parts.  My surgeon feels it is because 'my body doesn't like the parts'.  He has since "fired" me as a patient because 'we've lost confidence in each other'.  It seems as if some of these guys don't have time to discuss things with their patients.
