Persistent pain despite medications, physical therapy, or other non-surgical treatments.
Relies on the body’s natural bone growth to secure the prosthetic components, which have a porous surface.
Often preferred for younger, more active patients
Combines both cemented and cementless techniques.
Usually involves a cemented femoral component and a cementless acetabular component.
A minimally invasive technique that accesses the hip joint from the front.
May allow for quicker recovery and less muscle damage.
The most commonly used approach, accessing the hip joint from the back.
Provides good visibility and precise placement of the prosthetic components.
A degenerative joint disease where the cartilage that cushions the hip joint wears away over time, leading to pain, stiffness, and decreased mobility.
An autoimmune disorder where the immune system attacks the joint lining, causing inflammation and damage to the hip joint.
Arthritis that develops after a hip injury, such as a dislocation or fracture, causing joint degradation over time.
A condition where the blood supply to the femoral head (the ball of the hip joint) is disrupted, leading to bone death and joint collapse.
Breaks or cracks in the hip bone, typically due to falls or accidents, that can severely damage the joint and require replacement surgery.
A congenital condition where the hip joint doesn’t form properly, leading to joint instability and early wear and tear.
