What is hip replacement surgery?

Hip replacement, or total hip arthroplasty, is a surgery to replace a damaged hip joint with an artificial one. It's used for hip fractures and severe arthritis-related pain. Arthritis types affecting the hip include osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and traumatic arthritis. The goal is to relieve persistent hip pain by replacing damaged joint parts. Two methods are traditional (with a longer incision) and minimally invasive (using smaller incisions), but suitability depends on individual cases and is determined by your doctor.

Why might I need hip replacement surgery?

Hip replacement surgery treats hip pain and disability, primarily caused by osteoarthritis. Osteoarthritis damages hip cartilage and limits movement, causing severe pain and hindering daily activities.

Other arthritis types and hip injuries can also lead to hip joint degeneration. In some cases, hip replacement addresses certain hip fractures, which result from injuries and cause intense pain, making walking difficult.

When medical treatments like anti-inflammatory medications, pain relievers, and physical therapy don't effectively manage arthritis pain, hip replacement becomes an option. It may also be recommended for various other reasons by your healthcare provider.

What are the risks of hip replacement surgery?

Potential surgical complications include bleeding, infection, blood clots, dislocation, need for additional surgery, and nerve injury leading to weakness or numbness. Specific risks may vary with your medical condition; discuss any concerns with your healthcare provider before the procedure.
