Best Hip Arthroplasty Surgeon in Indore Hip arthroplasty, also known as hip replacement surgery, is a surgical procedure that involves removing a damaged or diseased hip joint and replacing it with an artificial joint, also known as a prosthesis. The prosthesis typically consists of a metal stem that is inserted into the femur (thigh bone), a metal or ceramic ball that replaces the head of the femur, and a plastic or metal socket that is inserted into the hip bone. Hip arthroplasty is usually performed to relieve severe pain and improve mobility in patients who have hip joint damage from conditions such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, avascular necrosis, or fractures. The surgery can be performed using a variety of approaches, including the traditional posterior approach, the anterior approach, or the lateral approach, and can be performed as a total hip replacement or a partial hip replacement. Recovery from hip arthroplasty typically involves a period of physical therapy and rehabilitation, and patients are usually able to resume normal activities within a few months of surgery.
