About Revision Hip Replacement
Revision hip replacement is a surgical procedure performed to replace a worn-out or failed hip implant. This surgery is necessary when the initial hip replacement no longer functions correctly, causing pain and mobility issues. Revision surgery involves removing the old implant and replacing it with new components to restore the hip’s function.
Common reasons for revision hip replacement include:
Over time, hip implants can wear out, leading to pain and reduced function.
An infection in the hip joint can cause the implant to fail, necessitating revision surgery.
Repeated dislocation of the hip joint can indicate a problem with the implant, requiring revision.
The implant can become loose from the bone, causing pain and instability.
Bone fractures around the implant may require revision surgery to ensure proper healing and function.
Symptoms indicating the need for revision hip replacement can include:
Chronic pain that does not respond to conservative treatments such as medication, physical therapy, or injections.
Limping, reduced walking distance, or reliance on walking aids due to hip pain or instability.
Feeling of the hip giving way or a sensation of the joint moving out of place.
Persistent swelling or redness around the hip joint indicating possible infection or implant issues.
Difficulty moving the hip joint through its full range of motion, affecting daily activities.

Benefits of Revision Hip Replacement Surgery
Revision hip replacement offers significant benefits, enabling you to return to an active lifestyle. Here’s how it can benefit you:
The primary benefit is pain relief. By addressing the issues with the initial implant, revision surgery can significantly reduce or eliminate hip pain.
Post-surgery, you’ll likely experience improved hip function and a greater range of motion, enabling you to move more freely.
The procedure can restore stability to the hip joint, allowing you to engage in daily activities and sports without fear of dislocation.
Revision surgery can provide you with a new, durable implant that offers many more years of pain-free movement.
Revision Hip Replacement Procedure:
Our experienced surgeons use advanced techniques to perform revision hip replacement effectively. Here’s a simplified breakdown of the procedure:
You will receive regional or general anesthesia to ensure you are comfortable during the procedure.
The surgeon will make an incision near the hip to access the old implant.
The surgeon will carefully remove the old hip implant and any damaged tissue or bone.
A new hip implant will be placed, ensuring proper alignment and stability.
The surgeon will close the incision with sutures or surgical staples and apply a bandage to protect the area.
