Total Hip Replacement India
(Package: $8500, 8 Days Stay)

Total Hip Replacement or THR procedure is conducted for the candidates, who suffer from any kind of hip arthritis. THR improves the total quality of life. It is conducted to remove the femoral head entirely and the hip that causes the trouble is replaced with a new and artificial hip. Then the prosthesis or implant is placed with a new socket and a new ball. The new ball here is attached to the stem and it would get machined in the bone of hip. The implant used for the hip replacement would wear out in some period of time. So, on an average, the implant lasts for over 15 to 20 years, but for the younger candidates, this period is often less. After it is wearing out, revision of the same hip replacement procedure would be considered.

Some of the prosthesis approaches use ceramic ball that get attached to the metal stem. The bearing is usually done with acetabular component, which is a metal shell having inner socket liner made with plastic. The plastic used in this is highly wear resistant, as it is cross polyethylene of ultra high molecule weight and are highly cross linked.

      I came to see the doctor in WHE and he introduced me to the stem cell treatment. They took the stem cells from my bone marrow and fat and he injected them and it has been fabulous. I don’t have the aches and pains that I used to suffer from on a constant day to day basis. I would highly recommend it to anybody who’s looking for a remedy to their back pain and their aching joints.
