What is total hip replacement?
Total hip replacement in Turkey in Istanbul is a surgical procedure in which diseased cartilage and bone in the hip joint are surgically replaced with artificial materials.
Why do you need a hip replacement?
The aims of hip replacement in Istanbul are to relieve pain and improve hip function. Hip replacement is usually only considered after other therapies, such as pain medication and physiotherapy, have failed.
What conditions are commonly treated by hip replacement?
Total hip replacement is commonly used to treat :
- Joint failure caused by osteoarthritis.
- Rheumatoid arthritis
- Traumatic arthritis
- Hip fractures
- Avascular necrosis
- Benign and malignant bone tumours and other less common conditions
How long will the new hip joint last?
The new hip joint is expected to last more than ten years in 90% of patients. There is an 80% chance that the hip replacement will last 20 years or more.
What other types of hip replacement are there?
- Partial hip replacement
The hip is a ball-and-socket joint. It can be damaged by disease or wear and tear. If only part of the joint is damaged, a partial hip replacement may be considered.
In a partial hip replacement operation, the hip socket is generally left intact. The head of the femur is replaced with an artificial component similar to that used in a total hip replacement. Sometimes, a device is placed on the bone so that the top of the femur does not have to be cut off. - Minimally invasive hip replacement
Minimally invasive hip replacement allows the surgeon to perform the hip replacement through one or two small incisions. Compared to traditional hip replacement surgery, this technique can reduce pain and speed healing.
Minimally invasive hip replacement has not been performed for a long time, so there are no reliable studies comparing it to the traditional method. - Revision hip replacement
Artificial implants wear out over time and may need to be replaced. Hip revision surgery is a procedure to replace a worn implant.
Hip revisions are more complicated than the first ones and their results are not as good. The risk of complications increases with each revision.
