General Health News
"It works in a similar way to the original hollowing out of the bone," he said.
"This means the bone is not cut open, keeping recovery time down to just a few days."

"It's not good for anyone of any age to have to recover from surgery as severe as having their bone sliced open, but if you are elderly, this is especially difficult to recover from," he said.
