Hip Replacement

GENERAL INFORMATION

Hips that have received damage due to arthritis, fractures or other diseases may have sustained irreversible damage to the bone. When this happens, a total hip replacement might be the best available treatment. A prosthetic hip is placed into the pelvis and the head of the femur to recreate the ball-and-socket joint which remobilizes the hip and stops pain and bone spur formation.
