Hip Replacement Surgery
Total hip replacement surgery to relieve severe hip pain and restore mobility using premium implants and minimally invasive techniques at S4 Hospital, Gokak.
About Hip Replacement Surgery
Total hip replacement surgery replaces the damaged ball-and-socket joint with a prosthetic implant, eliminating pain and restoring normal hip function. It is highly effective for end-stage hip arthritis, avascular necrosis, and hip fractures.
Dr. Ramesh Patagundi at S4 Hospital uses both cemented and cementless implant systems, selecting the most appropriate technique based on the patient age, bone quality, and activity level.
