Hip Replacement
Articles and resources for Hip Replacement in Orthopedic Surgery.
Hip replacement is a surgical procedure where a damaged or worn-out hip joint is replaced with an artificial implant. This surgery is commonly considered for individuals suffering from severe hip pain or mobility issues, often caused by conditions such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, or hip fractures. The goal is to relieve pain, improve function, and enhance the quality of life for those affected by debilitating hip problems.
During the procedure, an orthopedic surgeon typically removes the damaged parts of the hip joint and replaces them with a prosthesis made of metal, plastic, or ceramic materials. The surgery can be performed through various techniques, including traditional open surgery or minimally invasive approaches. Patients usually spend time in the hospital for recovery and may undergo physical therapy to regain strength and mobility in the hip joint after the operation.
The benefits of hip replacement often include significant pain relief, improved joint function, and increased mobility, allowing individuals to return to daily activities. However, like any surgical procedure, there are risks involved, such as infection, blood clots, or complications related to anesthesia. Understanding these potential benefits and risks is important for making informed decisions regarding treatment options.
