Hip replacement surgery involves the removal of damaged bone and cartilage and replacing them with a prosthetic implant. It is commonly performed on patients with severe arthritis, fractures, or degenerative joint disease, providing long-term pain relief and improved joint function.

What Is It?

Hip replacement, also known as hip arthroplasty, is designed for patients suffering from chronic pain, stiffness, and limited mobility. The damaged ball-and-socket joint is replaced with an artificial implant, restoring movement and reducing discomfort.
