Description of Hip Replacement:

What is Total Hip Replacement (Hip Arthroplasty)?
A total hip replacement is a surgical procedure whereby the diseased cartilage and bone of the hip joint is surgically replaced with artificial materials.

About Hip Replacement

Key facts to plan your treatment: how long it takes, your hospital stay, anaesthesia, risks and recovery.

Duration of surgery/treatment
A total hip replacement surgery takes approximately two to four hours. Preperation can take an additional few hours.
Days admitted
You will usually be hospitalized for 4 to 6 days.
Anesthesia
General anesthesia, or spinal anesthesia (anesthetizes your body from the waist down)
Recovery
Recovery depends on your general health, age, and the outcome of the surgery. Physical therapy is a very important factor in the overall outcome of hip replacement surgery, and will usually start as soon as possible after the surgery.
Risks
Serious complications occur in fewer than 2% of patients. The mortality rate from hip replacement surgery is well below 1%. Risks include: - Blood clots. - Infection. - Fracture of the hip joint during surgery. - Dislocation of the new joint. - Loosening of your new joint over time, causing pain in your hip. - Breakage of the prosthesis. - Change in leg length. - Joint stiffening: sometimes the soft tissues around your joint hardens, making it difficult to move your hip. - Wear and tear over time.
