Wear and tear, fractures, arthritis, and various rheumatic diseases affecting the hip joint gradually reduce mobility and significantly lower quality of life. In such cases, hip replacement surgery is an effective solution for patients to walk again without pain and return to their daily lives.
Healme Clinic offers a safe and comfortable treatment process in hip replacement surgeries by combining modern technologies with multidisciplinary approaches.
Hip replacement surgery is a procedure in which the damaged or worn-out hip joint is replaced with an artificial joint (prosthesis). The prosthesis is usually made from biocompatible materials such as metal, ceramic, and polyethylene.
Hip prostheses can be applied in different forms depending on the patient’s age, bone structure, and lifestyle.
The damaged femoral head and the acetabulum (socket part) are completely removed and replaced with a prosthesis. This is the most commonly performed method.
Preferred in young and active patients. The femoral head is not completely removed; its surface is preserved with a metal covering.
Only the femoral head is replaced. It is generally applied in elderly patients after hip fractures.
Before surgery, the patient’s complaints are thoroughly evaluated. Imaging methods such as X-ray, MRI, and CT scans are used to analyze the condition of the hip joint.
Cardiovascular, kidney, and lung functions are examined. Consultations from anesthesia and internal medicine specialists are sought when necessary.
Patients are informed about the postoperative process. Exercises to strengthen the muscles are recommended. Healme Clinic ensures patients are informed at every stage and actively involved in the process.
The surgery is performed under general or spinal anesthesia. It takes approximately 1.5 to 2 hours.
With the minimally invasive techniques applied at Healme Clinic, recovery time is shortened and the risk of infection is minimized.
It generally varies between 3 to 5 days. On the first day, patients are helped to stand. Exercises begin under the supervision of a physiotherapist.
Rest and assisted walking are recommended for the first few weeks. The total recovery process usually takes 6 to 12 weeks. Regular physical therapy improves joint mobility and muscle strength.
At Healme Clinic, postoperative physiotherapy programs are personalized according to the patient’s needs.
Modern prostheses used today can function smoothly for up to 20 years. However, this period may vary depending on the patient’s weight, lifestyle, and postoperative care.
