What is Hip Replacement Surgery?

Hip Replacement Surgery, or total hip arthroplasty, involves replacing a damaged hip joint with a prosthetic implant. It is recommended for patients with:

  • Severe osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis
  • Hip fractures
  • Avascular necrosis (loss of blood supply to the hip bone)
  • Long-term hip pain unresponsive to other treatments

Benefits of Hip Replacement Surgery:

  • Long-lasting pain relief
  • Restored mobility and flexibility
  • Improved daily function and independence
  • Durable results with modern implants

What is Hip Arthroscopy?

Hip Arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgery using a small camera (arthroscope) to diagnose and treat joint problems. It requires only small incisions, offering faster recovery than open surgery.

Conditions Treated with Hip Arthroscopy:

  • Labral tears
  • Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI)
  • Cartilage injuries
  • Loose fragments in the hip joint
  • Early arthritis

Benefits of Hip Arthroscopy:

  • Minimally invasive with smaller scars
  • Quicker recovery
  • Lower complication risks
  • Preserves the natural joint
