What is Total Hip Replacement?

Total hip replacement, also known as total hip arthroplasty, is a surgical procedure in which the damaged or diseased hip joint is replaced with an artificial joint, known as a prosthesis. The goal of total hip replacement is to relieve pain, restore function, and improve the quality of life for individuals with severe hip arthritis or other conditions affecting the hip joint.

12 Years Success Story of Hip Replacement

Here are some key points about total hip replacement:

Total hip replacement is typically recommended for individuals with the following conditions:

Severe Hip Arthritis: This includes osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and other forms of arthritis that cause significant joint pain, stiffness, and functional limitations.

Hip Fractures: In certain cases of hip fractures, particularly those that cannot be effectively repaired through other means, total hip replacement may be performed.

Other Hip Conditions: Total hip replacement may be considered for conditions such as avascular necrosis, hip dysplasia, or failed previous hip surgeries.

Procedure: During total hip replacement surgery, the damaged femoral head (the ball-shaped top of the thighbone) is removed and replaced with a metal or ceramic ball attached to a stem. The acetabulum (the socket in the pelvis) is also prepared and fitted with a metal socket. A plastic, ceramic, or metal liner is placed within the socket to allow for smooth movement between the new ball and socket.

Implant Materials: The prosthetic components used in total hip replacement are typically made of biocompatible materials such as metal alloys (e.g., cobalt-chromium or titanium) for the ball and stem, and high-density polyethylene, ceramic, or metal for the socket liner. The choice of implant materials depends on factors such as patient age, activity level, and hip replacement surgeon preference.

Rehabilitation: Following total hip replacement, a period of rehabilitation is necessary to help restore strength, mobility, and function. Physical therapy is typically prescribed to gradually increase weight-bearing activities, improve range of motion, and strengthen the hip muscles. Pain management strategies, walking aids, and activity modifications may be used during the recovery period.

Long-term Outcomes: Total hip replacement is considered a highly successful procedure, providing significant pain relief and improved function for the majority of patients. The longevity of the implant can vary depending on factors such as patient age, activity level, implant design, and proper post-operative care. Regular follow-up visits with hip replacement surgeon are important to monitor the condition of the hip replacement and address any concerns.

It's important to consult with the best orthopedic surgeon or best knee replacement surgeon to determine if total hip replacement is the appropriate treatment option for your specific hip condition.
