What is Hemi Arthroplasty?

Hemi arthroplasty, also known as half-hip replacement, is a surgical procedure where the damaged ball (femoral head) of the hip joint is removed and replaced with a metal implant. The socket (acetabulum) of the hip joint is usually left intact unless it is also severely damaged. This procedure is typically performed when only one side of the hip joint is significantly affected by conditions like:

• Fracture of the femoral neck (hip fracture)
• Severe osteoarthritis in the hip joint
• Avascular necrosis (loss of blood supply to the femoral head)

Benefits of Hemi Arthroplasty:

• Reduced pain and stiffness in the hip
• Improved mobility and function
• Faster recovery time compared to total hip replacement
• Shorter hospital stay

Hospitalization Care at Ishaan Ortho & Spine:

At Ishaan Ortho & Spine, we understand the importance of providing comprehensive care before, during, and after your Hemi arthroplasty. Our dedicated team of surgeons, nurses, and physiotherapists will ensure a smooth and comfortable experience throughout your hospitalization:

• Pre-operative assessment: Our team will conduct a thorough evaluation of your medical condition to determine if Hemi arthroplasty is the right option for you. This may include X-rays, blood tests, and physical examinations.
• Surgical procedure: The surgery is typically performed under general anesthesia and takes approximately 1-2 hours. Our experienced surgeons use minimally invasive techniques whenever possible to minimize tissue damage and promote faster healing.
• Post-operative care: Our team will closely monitor your progress and provide pain management medication to ensure your comfort. Physiotherapy will begin soon after surgery to help you regain strength, flexibility, and mobility in your hip joint.
• Discharge planning: Our team will work with you to develop a personalized rehabilitation plan to continue your recovery at home. This may include exercises, pain management strategies, and instructions on daily activities.
