Hip Replacement Surgery

A hip replacement can treat hip pain and stiffness in people with arthritis, avascular necrosis, or other forms of hip joint damage. In hip replacement surgery, an orthopedic surgeon replaces both ends or one end of the damaged hip joint with artificial parts. There are several surgical approaches to hip replacement, including minimally invasive options, that may be appropriate for some patients. Recovery and rehabilitation will help you regain your mobility and resume your activities with less pain.
