What is Total Hip Replacement?

Total hip replacement, also known as hip arthroplasty, is a surgical procedure that replaces a damaged or diseased hip joint with a prosthetic implant. This procedure is recommended for patients suffering from:

• Osteoarthritis – The most common cause of hip pain and stiffness due to cartilage breakdown.
• Rheumatoid Arthritis – An autoimmune condition causing inflammation and joint deterioration.
• Avascular Necrosis – A condition where blood supply to the hip bone is reduced, leading to bone death.
• Post-Traumatic Arthritis – Arthritis resulting from a hip injury or fracture.
• Hip Dysplasia – A condition where the hip joint does not develop properly, leading to premature joint wear.

By replacing the damaged hip joint with a durable prosthetic implant, hip replacement surgery can eliminate pain, improve function, and enhance overall mobility.

How Does Total Hip Replacement Work?

During total hip replacement surgery, the damaged portions of the hip joint—including the femoral head (ball) and acetabulum (socket)—are removed and replaced with prosthetic components.

Steps of the Procedure:

1. The damaged femoral head (ball of the hip joint) is removed and replaced with a metal or ceramic ball attached to a stem that fits into the femur (thighbone).
2. The damaged acetabulum (hip socket) is resurfaced and replaced with a durable, medical-grade plastic or metal liner.
3. The prosthetic components work together to create a smooth, natural hip movement.

Types of Hip Replacement Approaches:

At Advanced Orthopedics, we use advanced surgical techniques to ensure faster recovery and better outcomes:

• Traditional Total Hip Replacement: A standard approach for replacing the entire hip joint.
• Minimally Invasive Hip Replacement: Uses smaller incisions for reduced tissue damage and faster healing.
• Anterior Hip Replacement: A muscle-sparing approach that allows for quicker recovery and less post-surgical pain.
• Robotically-Assisted Hip Replacement: Uses advanced technology for enhanced precision and better implant alignment.

Benefits of Total Hip Replacement

✔ Significant Pain Relief – Eliminates hip pain caused by arthritis or joint damage.
✔ Improved Mobility & Function – Restores range of motion and allows for daily activities without discomfort.
✔ Faster Recovery with Advanced Techniques – Minimally invasive and robotic-assisted procedures reduce downtime.
✔ Long-Lasting Results – Modern hip implants are designed to last 15-25 years or more.
✔ Better Quality of Life – Regain independence and return to the activities you love.

Is Total Hip Replacement Right for You?

You may be a candidate for hip replacement if you experience:
🔹 Chronic hip pain that limits daily activities (walking, bending, or standing).
🔹 Pain that persists even with medication or physical therapy.
🔹 Stiffness in the hip joint that reduces mobility.
🔹 Difficulty sleeping due to hip discomfort.
🔹 A previous hip injury that has led to arthritis or joint degeneration.

Our orthopedic specialists at Advanced Orthopedics will perform a comprehensive evaluation, including physical exams, imaging (X-rays, MRI, or CT scans), and a review of your medical history, to determine the best treatment plan for you.
