Hip

Replacement

Hip replacement is a surgical procedure in which the damaged hip joint is replaced with a prosthetic implant. Depending on the extent of the joint damage, the surgery may be performed as a total replacement.

In short: Hip replacement surgery involves replacing the hip joint with a prosthetic implant, helping to relieve pain and improve mobility.
