A total hip replacement is indicated in the patients with severe or painful osteoarthritis of the hip joint or in the case of fractures. Hip replacement relieves pain and functional disability and improves the quality of life. The procedure involves removing the damaged cartilage and bone and replacing it with the prosthetic components. A general anesthesia is administered before the procedure.
During the procedure, the incision is made in the upper part of the thigh. The damaged femoral head is removed and replaced with a metal stem. The femoral stem is cemented into the bone. A ceramic ball is placed over the upper part of the stem. A metal socket is used to replace the damaged cartilage of the socket. A plastic liner is then inserted between the new metal ball and socket to allow smooth gliding movement. Then the incision is closed in layers with suture and covered with sterile dressing.

A general anesthesia is administered before the procedure.

The tendon is trimmed and fixed back with a screw into deep bone tunnel of the humerus which is made by the reamer. Then the incision is closed with sutures and covered with a sterile dressing.
