Total Hip Replacement (THR) is a highly effective orthopedic surgical procedure performed to relieve chronic hip pain and restore joint function when the hip joint is severely damaged. The procedure involves replacing both the ball (femoral head) and socket (acetabulum) of the hip joint with durable artificial implants, allowing smooth and pain-free movement.
With extensive expertise in joint replacement surgery, Dr. Dnyaneshwar, a senior Orthopaedic and Joint Replacement Surgeon in Bangalore, offers advanced total hip replacement using modern techniques and high-quality implants for long-lasting mobility and comfort.
THR may be recommended for patients suffering from:
Advanced osteoarthritis of the hip
Rheumatoid arthritis or inflammatory arthritis
Avascular necrosis of the femoral head
Severe hip pain limiting daily activities
Hip stiffness with restricted movement
Failed previous hip surgeries
Certain complex hip fractures in adults
The primary goal is to relieve pain and restore normal movement.
Common symptoms include:
Persistent hip or groin pain
Pain worsening with walking or standing
Difficulty climbing stairs or rising from a chair
Reduced range of hip movement
Pain disturbing sleep
Dependence on pain medication or walking aids
When conservative treatments fail, THR offers a reliable solution.
Hip joint damage can result from:
Age-related cartilage degeneration
Chronic inflammatory joint disease
Previous trauma or fractures
Reduced blood supply to the hip bone
Obesity increasing joint stress
Genetic or metabolic conditions
Consult Dr. Dnyaneshwar if:
Hip pain persists despite medication and physiotherapy
Daily activities and quality of life are affected
Walking distance is significantly reduced

Diagnosis involves:

THR involves:
Removal of the damaged femoral head
