What is Hip Replacement Surgery?

Hip replacement surgery is a procedure that aims to alleviate chronic hip pain caused by conditions such as osteoarthritis or injury. When non-surgical treatments such as medications and physical therapy no longer provide relief, this surgery may be recommended.

During the procedure, damaged portions of the hip joint are removed and replaced with artificial components. The goal is to improve joint function, reduce pain, and help restore mobility. While hip replacement surgery can provide significant benefits, outcomes may vary depending on individual factors.

The main reason to consider hip replacement surgery is to address chronic hip pain that severely affects daily activities and reduces overall quality of life, especially when other treatments have not provided sufficient relief.

Types of Hip Replacement Surgery

There are different types of hip replacement surgeries available, tailored to the specific needs of each patient. Your surgeon will recommend the most appropriate option based on the severity of your condition, overall health, and lifestyle. Each type aims to alleviate pain and restore mobility, helping you regain your quality of life.

Total Hip Replacement (THR)
Involves replacing both the hip socket (acetabulum) and the head of the thigh bone (femoral head).

Partial Hip Replacement
Also known as hemiarthroplasty, only the femoral head is replaced.

Hip Resurfacing
A procedure where the socket is replaced, and the femoral head is capped with a smooth metal covering.

Your surgeon will recommend the best type of hip replacement surgery based on your joint damage, overall health, and lifestyle. This tailored approach aims to relieve pain and improve mobility, helping you regain a better quality of life.

Benefits of Hip Replacement Surgery

are there any risks

Hip Replacement Surgery Offers a Range of Potential Benefits, Including:

Significant Pain Relief
Alleviates chronic hip pain that has not improved with conservative treatments.

Restored Functionality
Many patients regain ease of movement, allowing for a return to regular activities and improved mobility.

Improved Quality of Life
With reduced pain and greater mobility, patients often enjoy a more active and fulfilling lifestyle.

Durable Solutions
Modern prosthetic implants are built to be long-lasting, providing relief for many years, though replacement may be required over time.

Please Note
While many patients experience these benefits, individual results may vary based on factors such as age, overall health, and adherence to post-operative care.

Potential Risks and Side Effects

As with any surgical procedure, hip replacement surgery carries some potential risks, which will be discussed with you in detail before your procedure. These may include:

Infection
Can usually be managed with antibiotics if caught early.

Blood Clots
Preventative measures such as blood-thinning medications and physical therapy will be advised.

Hip Dislocation
Careful adherence to rehabilitation instructions can reduce the risk.

Wear and Tear
While modern implants are durable, they are not designed to last a lifetime and may require revision surgery after 20 or more years.

    What Happens During the Procedure?

    During hip replacement surgery, the procedure is typically performed under general or spinal anaesthesia to ensure comfort. The operation generally follows these steps:

    Anesthesia
    You will be administered either general or spinal anaesthesia to ensure you remain pain-free throughout the procedure.

    Incision
    A small incision is made over the hip to access the joint.

    Removal of Damaged Tissue
    The damaged bone and cartilage are carefully removed.

    Implant Placement:
    The surgeon replaces the removed bone and cartilage with a prosthetic joint made from materials such as metal, plastic, or ceramic.

    Wound Closure
    The incision is closed using stitches or staples to secure the area for healing.

    This process is performed by a trained orthopaedic surgeon, ensuring that your treatment is handled with care and precision.

    Recovery

    Recovery from hip replacement surgery starts as soon as the procedure is completed, with an emphasis on pain control and gradual mobilisation to support healing.

    Recovery times vary from person to person, but typically, you can expect to stay in the hospital for a few days post-surgery. Initial recovery involves supervised physical therapy to help regain movement and strength in the hip. Once discharged, you will likely need assistance with daily activities for a short period. Strenuous activities should be avoided for 6 to 12 weeks to promote healing.

    A tailored physiotherapy programme will be provided to support your recovery and help you regain mobility. Following your surgeon’s advice and adhering to your rehabilitation plan are essential for the best outcome.
