Mr. Arifuzzaman P from Bangladesh successfully underwent Total Hip Replacement Surgery at Yashoda Hospitals, Hyderabad, under the supervision of Dr. Sunil Dachepalli, Senior Consultant Orthopaedic, Robotic Joint Replacement & Arthroscopic Surgeon
Total hip replacement surgery is a procedure performed to alleviate severe hip pain and restore mobility in individuals with conditions such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, or hip fractures. The surgery involves removing damaged or diseased parts of the hip joint and replacing them with artificial components. It is typically recommended when other treatments like medication, physical therapy, or walking aids no longer provide relief from pain or improve mobility. During the procedure, the surgeon removes the damaged ball-and-socket hip joint and replaces it with the artificial implant, mimicking the natural movement of the hip. The advantages of total hip replacement include reduced pain, improved mobility, and enhanced function of the hip joint. This surgery aims to relieve discomfort, allowing individuals to perform daily activities more comfortably and effectively. However, like any surgical procedure, there are potential risks and complications, including infection, blood clots, dislocation of the artificial joint, or nerve damage. Patients considering total hip replacement should discuss these risks with their healthcare provider and follow post-operative instructions for a successful recovery
