What Is Joint Replacement Surgery?

Joint replacement surgery is recommended when non-surgical treatments such as medications, injections, and physiotherapy fail to relieve joint pain or restore function. The procedure involves replacing a damaged joint—most commonly the hip or knee—with an artificial implant designed to replicate natural movement and stability.

This surgery is especially effective for patients with:

• Severe osteoarthritis
• Rheumatoid arthritis
• Joint deformities
• Advanced cartilage degeneration
• Chronic joint pain affecting daily activities

Hip Replacement Surgery

Restoring Mobility with Precision and Care

Hip replacement surgery involves removing the damaged portions of the hip joint and replacing them with durable, biocompatible implants. At Metro Hospital, surgeons use minimally invasive and advanced alignment techniques to ensure accurate implant positioning, faster recovery, and long-lasting outcomes.

Benefits of Hip Replacement:

• Significant pain relief
• Improved joint movement
• Enhanced walking ability
• Better posture and balance
• Long-term durability of implants

Knee Replacement Surgery

Enhancing Comfort, Strength, and Function

For patients with advanced knee arthritis or joint damage, knee replacement surgery offers reliable relief and restored mobility. The procedure replaces worn-out cartilage and bone surfaces with high-quality prosthetic components, helping patients return to an active lifestyle.

Benefits of Knee Replacement:

• Reduced knee pain and stiffness
• Improved joint alignment
• Increased walking endurance
• Better quality of life
• Faster rehabilitation with guided physiotherapy
