At Maruti Orthopaedic Hospital, our Bone and Joint Care Centre is dedicated to providing comprehensive care and advanced treatment options for hip problems. Our experienced team of orthopaedic specialists ensures that each patient receives personalized care tailored to their specific needs.
Understanding Total Hip Replacement
Total hip replacement, also known as hip arthroplasty, involves replacing the damaged hip joint with an artificial prosthesis. This surgery is typically recommended for patients who experience chronic hip pain and limited mobility due to conditions such as:
- Osteoarthritis: A degenerative joint disease causing the breakdown of cartilage and bones.
- Rheumatoid Arthritis: An autoimmune disorder leading to inflammation and joint damage.
- Post-Traumatic Arthritis: Arthritis resulting from a severe hip injury or fracture.
- Avascular Necrosis: The death of bone tissue due to lack of blood supply, often leading to joint collapse.
- Hip Dysplasia: A congenital condition where the hip socket does not fully cover the ball portion of the upper thigh bone.
The Surgical Procedure
Hip replacement surgery can be performed using different approaches, but the most common technique is the posterior approach. During the procedure, the surgeon makes an incision over the hip, removes the damaged bone and cartilage, and implants the prosthetic components. The prosthesis typically consists of a metal ball and a plastic or ceramic socket.
Types of Hip Replacement
- Total Hip Replacement: Both the ball and socket are replaced with prosthetic components.
- Partial Hip Replacement: Only the ball is replaced, usually performed in cases of hip fractures.
- Hip Resurfacing: A bone-preserving procedure where only the damaged surfaces of the hip joint are replaced.
Benefits of Hip Replacement Surgery
The primary benefits of hip replacement surgery include:
- Pain Relief: Significant reduction or complete elimination of hip pain.
- Improved Mobility: Restoration of hip function and range of motion.
- Enhanced Quality of Life: Ability to return to daily activities and hobbies without discomfort.
- Long-Lasting Results: Modern prosthetic components are designed to last many years, offering sustained relief.
