What is hip replacement surgery?
Hip replacement, or total hip arthroplasty, removes the damaged ball-and-socket joint and replaces it with a durable artificial implant made of metal, ceramic or high-grade polyethylene. It lets patients across Ranchi and Jharkhand regain a stable, pain-free hip without travelling to Delhi or Kolkata for the same procedure.
The hip is one of the body’s largest weight-bearing joints. When osteoarthritis, avascular necrosis (AVN), injury or degeneration damages it beyond repair, every step hurts — sitting, standing and stairs become a struggle.
The operation eliminates the source of pain by replacing the worn joint surfaces with an implant that mimics the natural hip. Modern imported implants are designed to last 20 to 25 years or more, with a success rate above 90% at 10 years. For an elderly hip fracture, early surgery is usually safer than prolonged bed rest.
Do you need hip replacement?
For arthritis and AVN, surgery is advised only when non-surgical care no longer relieves pain. A hip fracture in an older adult is different — early surgery is usually safer.
You may need surgery if
- Chronic hip pain persists at rest or disturbs sleep
- Walking, stairs or getting up from a chair is difficult
- Stiffness from arthritis or AVN limits movement
- Pain does not improve with medicines, injections or physiotherapy
- X-rays or MRI show significant joint damage
Conservative options to try first
- Anti-inflammatory medicines and pain management
- Physiotherapy and strengthening exercises
- Walking aids to reduce load on the joint
- Weight management to lower stress on the hip
Types of hip replacement
The right approach depends on the diagnosis, your age and your bone quality.
Total Hip Replacement
Both the ball (femoral head) and socket are replaced with imported implants — the most common, reliable option for severe arthritis and AVN.
Partial Hip Replacement
Only the femoral head (ball) is replaced — typically for certain hip fractures in elderly patients (hemiarthroplasty).
Anterior Approach
Minimally invasive surgery through the front of the hip — less muscle damage, faster recovery and lower dislocation risk.
Cemented vs Uncemented
Cemented implants fix immediately; uncemented let bone grow into the implant. Chosen on bone quality and age.
Recovery, step by step
A structured physiotherapy program accelerates recovery; each patient progresses at their own pace.
