Patients who suffer from ongoing hip problems often lead lives that are limited by pain, joint instability and a fear of falling. NJ hip surgeon Robert A. Kayal, MD specializes in diagnosing and treating hip pain—so patients of all ages may return to a full, active lifestyle. While some people need a full hip replacement to restore their quality of life, others may require only a partial hip replacement to address one part of their hip joint. Typically, partial hip replacement involves:
1. Leaving the pelvic socket (acetabulum) intact, and replacing only the femur head, or
2. Affixing a prosthetic device over the femur head, which allows the joint to function smoothly.
Benefits of Partial Hip Replacement
There are a variety of benefits to partial hip replacement, including:
- Reduced post-operative pain and trauma
- Same day return from hospital
- Improved joint stability and range of motionl
- Pain-free movement
- Expedited return to work and activity
