Revision Hip Replacement

Total Hip replacement is one of the most successful procedures in orthopaedics. In the vast majority of cases, it enables people to live active and pain free life. Hip is a socket and ball joint. In Hip Replacement Surgery, either the socket or the ball or both are replaced through titanium implants. 15-20 years after the original surgery, the bones in which the implant is fixed shrink and the implant becomes loose. Other reasons for doing revision hip replacement surgery could be infection in the implant, broken bone around the implant or dislocation. This can cause pain and discomfort. This is a sign that you might need revision hip replacement surgery. After revision surgery, your pain should lessen or go away and you will regain function of your artificial hip.

Surgical Procedure

Although Total Hip Replacement or Revision Hip Replacement have the same goal of relieving the pain and improve function but revision surgery is different than primary total hip replacement. It is a longer, more complex procedure that requires extensive planning, and specialized implants and tools to achieve a good result.

During hip revision surgery at Anand Hospital Purnia, Bihar, your surgeon Dr K S Anand will remove all or part of your artificial hip joint and replace it with a new one. In more severe infection cases, hip revision surgery happens in two stages. The first surgery removes the artificial joint and treats the infection with antibiotics. Once the infection clears, the surgeon will perform a second surgery to place a new hip joint.
