Hip Replacement

Hip replacement, also called hip arthroplasty, is a surgical procedure to address hip pain. The surgery replaces parts of the hip joint with artificial implants. The hip joint consists of a ball (at the top of the femur, also known as the thigh bone) and a socket (in the pelvis, also known as the hip bone). Hip replacement surgery includes replacement of one or both parts.

How do you know if you need a hip replacement ?
  • Inability to get restful sleep because of pain
  • Difficulty doing simple tasks such as getting dressed or climbing stairs
  • Inability to fully participate in the activities you enjoy
Why Is Hip Replacement Surgery Needed ?

Hip replacement surgery is usually needed to repair damage to the hip joint from:

  • Osteoarthritis
  • Rheumatoid arthritis
  • Osteonecrosis
  • Injuries or fractures from trauma or disease
  • causes of hip pain
  • Benefits of Surgery
  • Types of surgery

Hip pain is a symptom of several conditions, including arthritis, injuries to your hip (fractures, labral tears and dislocation), bursitis and structural issues.

1. Arthritis: causes pain and inflammation in your joints. Hip arthritis is common. It causes symptoms like pain, swelling and stiffness.
2. Bursitis: Bursitis is painful swelling in a small, fluid-filled sac called a bursa. Bursae (the plural of bursa) cushion spaces around bones and other tissue. Hip bursitis happens when the bursa in your hip becomes irritated and swells.
3. Injuries: Any injury that damages the parts of your hip joint can cause pain. Hip injuries are usually caused by:
● Repetitive strain injuries
● Sports injuries
● Traumas like falls or car accidents

Pain Relief

Improved mobility and long-lasting results are key advantages, but the main benefit is pain relief. An arthritic hip can affect all areas of your life. Easing hip pain following successful surgery can provide immediate benefits and a better quality of life.

High Success Rate

Hip replacement surgery boasts a high success rate. A massive 95% of patients1 report feeling very pleased with the outcome of their operation.

Improved Strength and Mobility

After pain relief, increased mobility and strength is the next major benefit.

Long-Lasting Results

Artificial hip implants are designed to be long-lasting. The latest studies show 80-85% of hip replacements are still working 20 years after they were inserted. This means that older patients are unlikely to need hip revision surgery.

Enhanced Quality of Life

Along with the other benefits mentioned, improved quality of life should not be underestimated. Reclaiming the ability to carry out simple tasks like walking and climbing the stairs can have extremely beneficial effects on a person’s mental wellbeing.

Total Hip Replacement

This surgical procedure sees the hip joint removed and replaced with a hip implant. It can be performed as a total replacement or a half replacement. It sounds complicated, but hip replacement is one of the most common orthopedic operations.

Partial Hip Replacement

Unlike a total hip replacement, this procedure doesn’t replace the socket of the hip joint. Instead, the ball of the joint is replaced.

Hip Arthroplasty

This is the medical term for a hip replacement. There is no difference between hip arthroplasty and hip replacement surgery. The goals are to restore function and relieve hip pain.

Hip Resurfacing

Hip resurfacing is a form of hip replacement surgery that takes less bone from the joint. It’s only really effective in younger adults with stronger bones.
