The hip joint is central to the body's movement. When this joint wears down, even simple movements like climbing stairs or sitting to pray become painful. Hip replacement surgery is a highly successful surgical procedure with a satisfaction rate exceeding 951,000 TPD/3T worldwide.
Causes of hip joint damage
It's not just older people; young people may also need the procedure because of:
- Advanced osteoarthritis: The smooth cartilage layer wears away with age.
- Avascular necrosis (AVN): Interruption of blood supply to the head of the femur, leading to bone death and collapse (common after prolonged use of cortisone or after accident injuries).
- Fractions: Femoral neck fractures in the elderly that do not heal and require immediate replacement.
💡 The latest technology (Ceramic on Ceramic): We use highly advanced ceramic heads and liners. Their main advantage is that they do not wear out as easily as older plastic ones, making them ideal for younger patients to use for decades.
Details of the surgery and techniques used
We perform the procedure through carefully planned surgical incisions (minimally invasive) to preserve the muscles and tendons surrounding the joint. This reduces postoperative pain, speeds up recovery, and significantly lowers the risk of future joint dislocation.
Your life after the operation
- Disappearance of the “groin” pain in the groin area.
- Restoring normal leg length (treatment of limping).
- The ability to drive a car and engage in light sports such as walking and swimming.
