Patients damaged hip joint either due to Osteoarthritis, Trauma, Congenital abnormality of the hip, Aseptic Necrosis, Rheumatoid Arthritis and become the ideal candidate for Total or Hemi Hip Replacement Surgery.The progressively intense chronic pain together with impairment of daily function including walking, climbing stairs, and even standing up from a sitting position eventually become reasons to consider a total hip replacement.
The severe pain prevents patients from physical activity and the quality of life goes down. A lot of people think that Hip Replacement means replacing the original hip joint with an artificial hip which is not true. In this surgery, the diseased cartilage and bone of the hip joint is surgically replaced with artificial materials.
