Total Hip Replacement in Hyderabad

TOTAL HIP REPLACEMENT
The hip joint is a type of ball and socket joint. The ball is formed by the head of the thigh bone (femur) and the socket is formed by part of the pelvis (acetabulum).
Usually the surfaces of the bones are covered with a smooth coating (articular cartilage). This allows smooth, pain free movement in all directions.


Total Hip Replacement with Navigation
In Total Hip Replacement surgery, the damaged bone and cartilage is removed and replaced with prosthetic components. The damaged femoral head is removed and replaced with a metallic stem that is placed in to the hollow center of the femur. A metal or ceramic ball is placed on the upper part of the stem. The damaged cartilage surface of the socket (Acetabulum) is removed and replaced with metal socket to allow for a smooth gliding surface.
