Understanding the Procedure

What is Hip Replacement Surgery?

Hip replacement surgery (hip arthroplasty) is a procedure in which the damaged surfaces of the hip joint are removed and replaced with precision-fitted artificial components. The hip is a ball-and-socket joint — the femoral head (ball) at the top of the thigh bone sits within the acetabulum (socket) in the pelvis.

In hip replacement, the damaged femoral head is removed and replaced with a metal stem with an artificial femoral head, while the acetabular socket is resurfaced with a metal cup and a smooth polyethylene or ceramic liner — replicating the natural hip's smooth, frictionless motion.

The procedure eliminates bone-on-bone contact, restores hip mechanics, and allows patients to walk comfortably and independently again.

Femoral Stem

Metal stem inserted into the femur to anchor the implant and support the artificial femoral head

Femoral Head

Metal or ceramic ball that replaces the natural femoral head and articulates with the acetabular cup

Acetabular Cup

Metal shell that replaces the hip socket (acetabulum), providing the foundation for the bearing surface

Liner / Bearing Surface

Polyethylene, ceramic or metal liner inside the acetabular cup providing smooth, low-friction articulation

Procedures Offered

Types of Hip Replacement Surgery

The appropriate hip replacement procedure depends on the patient's age, diagnosis, degree of joint damage, and activity level. Dr. Talreja assesses each case individually to recommend the most suitable option.

Total Hip Replacement

THR — Most Common Procedure

Both the femoral head and acetabular socket are replaced with precision-fitted implants. The gold-standard treatment for advanced hip arthritis, providing complete, lasting pain relief and restoration of full hip function.

  • Both components replaced
  • Cemented, uncemented or hybrid
  • Implants last 15 to 25+ years
  • Highest patient satisfaction rate
Best for: Advanced hip arthritis, AVN stage 3–4 Explore Total Hip Replacement

Hemi-Arthroplasty

Partial Replacement — Femoral Head Only

Only the femoral head (ball) is replaced while the natural acetabular socket is preserved. Most commonly used in elderly patients with displaced hip fractures where total replacement carries higher surgical risk.

  • Only femoral head replaced
  • Faster, less complex procedure
  • Used mainly for hip fractures in elderly
  • Shorter anaesthesia time
Best for: Displaced hip fractures in elderly Book Consultation

Revision Hip Replacement

Replacing a Previous Implant

Revision hip replacement is performed when a previous hip implant wears out, becomes loose, or fails. A more complex procedure requiring specialised revision implant systems and expertise in managing bone loss around the previous implant.

  • Replaces worn or failed hip implant
  • Manages periprosthetic bone loss
  • Requires complex implant systems
  • More complex than primary replacement
Best for: Loose or failed previous hip implant Book Consultation
Indications

Who Needs Hip Replacement Surgery?

Hip replacement is recommended when hip joint damage causes severe, persistent pain that significantly limits mobility and quality of life — and no longer responds to conservative treatment.

01

Advanced Hip Osteoarthritis

The most common indication. Severe cartilage wear causes bone-on-bone hip pain, stiffness, limping and difficulty with daily activities including walking and climbing stairs.

02

Avascular Necrosis (AVN) of the Hip

Disrupted blood supply to the femoral head causes bone death and progressive collapse of the hip joint. Hip replacement is typically required once AVN reaches an advanced stage. See AVN hip treatment →

03

Hip Fractures

Displaced femoral neck fractures — particularly in elderly patients — often require hemi-arthroplasty or total hip replacement as the most effective treatment to restore mobility and prevent long-term complications.

04

Rheumatoid Arthritis of the Hip

Autoimmune inflammatory arthritis causes progressive joint destruction across the entire hip — hip replacement is recommended when medication and joint management no longer control pain and function.

05

Post-Traumatic Hip Arthritis

Significant hip fractures, dislocations, or acetabular fractures can cause accelerated arthritis over time — eventually leading to severe hip pain requiring total hip replacement.

06

Failed Conservative Treatment

When adequate pain relief is not achieved with physiotherapy, anti-inflammatory medications, weight management, and corticosteroid hip injections over several months of treatment.

07

Hip Dysplasia with Severe Arthritis

Developmental hip dysplasia — abnormal hip socket development — can cause premature arthritis in younger patients, often requiring specialised total hip replacement with acetabular reconstruction.

Warning Signs

Signs You May Need Hip Replacement

These symptoms suggest advanced hip disease requiring orthopaedic evaluation. Clinical examination and X-rays are always necessary to confirm diagnosis and severity.

Persistent hip or groin pain limiting daily walking

Inability to walk more than short distances, or pain that wakes you from sleep at night.

Hip stiffness and loss of range of motion

Difficulty putting on shoes and socks, getting in and out of a car, or performing daily activities requiring hip movement.

Persistent limping or walking with a lean

Progressive antalgic gait (leaning towards the painful side) to offload the hip joint when walking.

No adequate relief from conservative treatment

Physiotherapy, anti-inflammatory medications, walking aids, and corticosteroid injections have not provided adequate or sustained improvement.

Severe functional limitation affecting independence

Inability to perform essential daily tasks — climbing stairs, bathing, cooking, or light exercise — due to hip pain and limitation.

Implant Options

Hip Replacement Implant Fixation Options

Modern hip implants offer multiple fixation methods. Dr. Talreja selects the most appropriate option based on each patient's age, bone quality, activity level and lifestyle requirements.

Cemented Fixation

Bone cement (polymethylmethacrylate) is used to secure the implant components to the bone. Provides immediate stability — most commonly used in elderly patients with softer bone quality or osteoporosis.

Uncemented (Cementless) Fixation

The implant has a porous surface designed for bone to grow into over time, creating a biological bond. Preferred in younger, more active patients with good bone quality for long-term durability.

Hybrid Fixation

A combination approach — typically a cemented femoral stem for immediate stability and an uncemented acetabular cup for biological fixation — balancing the advantages of both methods for appropriate patients.

Metal-on-Polyethylene

The most widely used bearing surface — metal femoral head articulating with a polyethylene liner. Highly cross-linked polyethylene significantly reduces wear and extends implant life. Excellent long-term track record.

Ceramic-on-Ceramic

The lowest wear rate of any bearing combination. Ideal for younger, more active patients requiring maximum implant longevity. Produces the least wear debris, reducing the risk of long-term loosening.

Ceramic-on-Polyethylene

Ceramic femoral head with polyethylene liner — combining the hardness and scratch resistance of ceramic with the durability and flexibility of cross-linked polyethylene. A reliable intermediate option.

Surgical Process

How Hip Replacement Surgery is Performed

The procedure takes 1 to 2 hours under spinal or general anaesthesia. Most patients begin walking the same day as surgery using a physiotherapy-guided Day 1 protocol.

01

Pre-Operative Assessment

X-rays, blood tests, cardiac assessment and anaesthesia review. Implant type, size and approach (posterior, lateral or anterior) are planned individually for each patient.

02

Anaesthesia and Approach

Spinal anaesthesia preferred. The surgical approach — posterior, anterolateral, or direct anterior — is selected based on patient anatomy, body composition, and surgeon preference.

03

Joint Resection and Implant

The damaged femoral head is carefully removed. The acetabulum is prepared and the cup implanted. A metal stem is placed in the femur and the artificial femoral head attached. Alignment and stability are confirmed before closure.

04

Day 1 Mobilisation

Physiotherapy begins on Day 1 — sitting, standing, and walking with a walker. Hip precaution instructions are provided. Most patients are discharged within 3 to 5 days.

Patient Outcomes

Benefits of Hip Replacement Surgery

Hip replacement is one of the most successful elective procedures in medicine — consistently delivering significant improvement in pain, mobility, and quality of life.

Dramatic Pain Relief

Most patients experience complete or near-complete elimination of hip pain — allowing comfortable walking, sleeping and daily activity within weeks of surgery.

Restored Hip Mobility

Restored range of motion enables patients to walk freely, climb stairs, dress independently, get in and out of vehicles, and participate in social and recreational activities.

Normal Gait and Stability

Elimination of the antalgic limp restores a more normal, symmetrical walking pattern — improving balance, reducing the risk of falls, and reducing strain on the opposite hip and knee.

Long-Lasting Results

Modern hip implants are designed to last 15 to 25 years or longer. Over 90% of hip replacements function well at 15 to 20 years in published registry data.

Most patients walk with a walker on Day 1 after surgery and are discharged within 3 to 5 days. Walking independently without aids is typically achieved within 4 to 6 weeks. Return to most daily activities — driving, light work and social activities — occurs around 6 to 8 weeks. Full functional recovery is generally achieved by 3 to 6 months. Physiotherapy is the cornerstone of good recovery.

Yes. Hip replacement is regularly and safely performed in elderly patients including those in their 80s. For elderly patients with hip fractures, early surgical treatment is associated with better outcomes, fewer complications, and faster return to independence compared to prolonged bed rest. Each patient's overall health, cardiac function and anaesthetic fitness are thoroughly assessed pre-operatively to ensure the safest possible approach.

Avascular necrosis (AVN) of the hip occurs when the blood supply to the femoral head is disrupted — causing bone cells to die and the joint surface to progressively collapse. Common causes include steroid use, excessive alcohol, sickle cell disease, and trauma. In early stages, joint-preserving procedures may be possible. In advanced stages (Stage 3 or 4 with femoral head collapse), total hip replacement is typically the most effective treatment. See AVN hip treatment →

Modern hip implants are designed to last 15 to 25 years or longer. Published national joint registry data consistently shows over 90% of hip replacements functioning well at 15 to 20 years. Implant longevity is influenced by activity level, body weight, implant type and bearing surface. Maintaining a healthy weight, following post-operative activity guidance, and attending regular follow-up appointments are key to maximising implant lifespan.

Following total hip replacement, specific hip precautions are advised for the first 6 to 12 weeks to prevent hip dislocation while the soft tissues heal. These typically include: avoiding bending the hip beyond 90 degrees, not crossing the legs, not sitting on low chairs or toilets, and avoiding internal rotation of the operated leg. Your physiotherapist at Manipal Hospital Jaipur will demonstrate and explain these in detail before discharge.
