Arthroplasty is a surgical procedure to repair or replace a damaged or diseased joint.
This is a procedure to remove your damaged hip joint and replace it with an artificial joint.
Hip Revision is a procedure to take out your old hip replacement and put in a new one.
If your swollen or painful joints, ligaments or tendons do not respond to conservative treatments your consultant may recommend image guided joint injections.
Under general anaesthetic your surgeon will move your stiff joint to a full range of motion, stretching the surrounding muscles and freeing the joint capsule.
