Total hip replacement (THR) is a procedure that removes damaged bone and cartilage and replaces it with prosthetic components. THR is one of the most cost-effective and consistently successful surgeries performed in orthopaedics. THR provides good outcomes for patients suffering from advanced degenerative hip osteoarthritis, providing pain relief, functional restoration, and improved quality of life. During a THR, the head of the femur is replaced with a prosthetic head on a shaft, and the joint surface of the acetabulum is lined with a bowl-shaped synthetic joint surface. A partial hip replacement can also be done for the neck of femur fractures (mostly displaced) where only the femoral part is replaced. The hip is a ball and socket joint. This design allows the poly-axial movement seen at the hip.
