Hip Replacement
Hipreplacement surgery is for people with severe hip damage. When you
have a hip replacement, the hip surgeon removes damaged cartilage and
bone from your hip joint and replaces them with new, man-made parts.
This can relieve pain, reduce hip stiffness and help your hip joint
work well, and improve your walking and other movements.
Hip
replacement is a procedure performed in order to treat:
• osteoarthritis
of the hip joint (bone on bone)
• severe pain in hip joint
•
loss of motion in hip joint
• deformity of the hip joint
•
hip injuries
• rheumatoid arthritis
• bone tumor
•
bone loss due to insufficient blood supply
Traditional
Hip Replacements
In
the traditional metal and plastic hip replacements, the plastic wears
out slowly over time. As the plastic wears out, small particles of
plastic debris are generated. This plastic debris triggers a response
by your body which can lead to loosening of implants over time.

procedures, and the results are excellent. Over 90% of patients have

Ceramic
hip replacements have been developed in an effort to decrease the
wearing out of hip implants. These implants are

decrease the amount of wear within the implants.

surgery.
