Hip replacement revision
Understanding hip revision surgery
Hip replacement surgery is one of the most successful operations in modern medicine and has helped to restore movement to millions of people across the world. However, hip replacements will eventually wear out over time, just like a normal joint.
When this happens, hip revision surgery will be needed in order to restore function to your hip and to help you remain as active and mobile as possible.
What is hip revision surgery?
Hip revision surgery is a surgical procedure to replace an artificial hip prosthesis that has worn out or ‘failed’.
The prostheses used for artificial hip replacements are usually expected to easily last for 10+ years, although they can be affected/damaged by trauma, infection and age.
This may lead to the need for a further operation, known as hip revision surgery.
