Types of Hip Replacement Surgery

The doctor advises a total or partial hip replacement procedure depending on which part of the hip needs replacement. In Total hip replacement, an orthopedist replaces both the ball and socket. In partial hip replacement, the doctor only replaces the ball.

No healthy bone or tissues are harmed in this procedure.
