• Hip Joint Replacement
Hip joint replacement is surgery to replace all or part of the hip joint with a man-made joint.
Your hip joint is made up of 2 major parts. One or both parts may be replaced during surgery:
• The Hip socket
• The upper end of the thighbone (called the femoral head)
The new hip that replaces the old one is made up of these parts:
• A socket, which is usually made of strong metal.
• A liner, which fits inside the socket. It is usually plastic. Some surgeons are now trying other materials, like ceramic or metal. The liner allows the hip to move smoothly.
• A metal or ceramic ball that will replace the round head (top) of your thigh bone.
• A metal stem that is attached to the thigh bone to anchor the joint.
• Complex trauma
Immediate specialized care of trauma patients is of utmost importance to keep the complications to a minimum.
