What are signs and symptoms?
- Hip pain while walking or running
- Pain the groin area
- Reduced range of motion of the hip
- Trouble walking or walking with pain
What are causes?
- Hip arthritis is deterioration of the cartilage of the hip joint. It often appears in people aged 50-60.
- When the blood supply to the head of the femur (thighbone) is disrupted, the bone can collapse and the joint deteriorates, leading to severe hip arthritis.
- Having a family history of arthritis increases the risk.
- Other causes often involve prolonged use of steroidal drugs, joint injuries and certain diseases, e.g. rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis and infections.
How can hip arthritis be surgically treated?
Total Hip Replacement with Direct Anterior Approach (DAA) at Bangkok International Hospital
- Using DAA technique, detachment of muscle and tendon is not required, allowing less pain and faster recovery.
- JointPoint™, the newest non-invasive hip navigation system helps to verify desired implant position while choosing appropriate size and material of the implant. It also helps to reduce leg length discrepancy.
- The latest hip prosthesis (Actis® stem) is specifically designed to provide ease-of- insertion benefit with improved implant stability with a collar which significantly helps to reduce the potential of subsidence while minimizing possible complications during surgery.
- With BIKINI incision, a surgical mark is made beneath the bikini line, thus shorts or swimsuits can be worn confidently.
- Radiofrequency nerve ablation, a novel pain intervention technique is used to eliminate pain by heating the nerve responsible for hip pain up to certain degree. As a result, muscle strength is preserved in order to facilitate rehabilitation after surgery, leading to a quick return to normalcy.
