Total Hip Replacement (THR)

Patients:
Karen, Ruth, Alvin, Helen


Karen is 41 years old and several years back suffered a fractured acetabulum (hip socket) in a MVA.

This was repaired with plates and screws.Over time she developed a painful stiff hip.


We perfomed a noncemented THR (porous coated acetabulum and HA coated femoral stem). She is now much more active and has no pain.


RUTH

Ruth is 64 years old. She has a stiff painful hip which prevented her from keeping up with her grandchildren.

She is very happy after her cemented THR.

ALVIN

Alvin is very happy after his cemented THR.


HELEN

Helen has better mobility and no pain after her noncemented THR.
