Understanding
Total Hip Replacement
Total Hip Replacement (THR), also known as Total Hip Arthroplasty, is a surgical procedure in which the damaged hip joint is replaced with artificial components (prostheses). The damaged ball (femoral head) and socket (acetabulum) are removed and replaced with durable implants to relieve pain, restore mobility, and improve quality of life. It is commonly recommended for patients with severe hip arthritis, fractures, or degenerative joint diseases when non-surgical treatments are no longer effective.
A total hip replacement (arthroplasty) is a surgical procedure where an orthopedic surgeon removes damaged bone and cartilage in your hip joint and replaces them with artificial implants (prostheses). The procedure aims to relieve severe, chronic pain and restore mobility caused by conditions like osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, or fractures.
