Robotic Revision Hip Replacement
Introduction
Robotic Revision Hip Replacement is performed when a previously implanted hip joint becomes painful, loose, worn out, or unstable.
The robotic system creates a detailed 3D map of your hip anatomy, allowing the surgeon to accurately assess bone loss and precisely position new implants.
Key Benefits
- Highly accurate assessment of bone loss
- Improved stability of the revised hip implant
- Maximum preservation of healthy bone
- Reduced risk of repeat implant failure
- Faster recovery compared to traditional revision surgery
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
When is a hip revision surgery needed?
Revision surgery may be required due to persistent pain, instability or dislocation, implant loosening, wear, infection, or implant fracture.
Is robotic revision hip replacement safer?
Yes. Robotic-guided precision significantly improves implant placement accuracy and helps reduce complication rates.
Who Is a Good Candidate?
- Failed or painful previous hip replacement
- Repeated hip dislocation episodes
- Infection around a previous implant
- Implant wear or breakage
Recovery Timeline
- Week 1: Walking begins with support
- 6 Weeks: Improved joint stability
- 3 Months: Good functional mobility
- 6–12 Months: Full recovery
