As such age is no bar for this surgery, but it preferably
should be done in older age group. In younger age group, it should
only be considered when patient is severely crippled due to severe
rheumatoid arthritis, post traumatic arthritis of hip or avascular
necrosis.(AVN)

Can I undergo replacement of
both the hips at the same time? |
||||||
|
Yes, both the hips can be replaced at the same sitting if
you are medically fit. It means one time anaesthesia, one time
hospital stay, one time surgery and one time pain medication. It
will be cost effective as well. Your doctor can advise you if you
can undergo replacement of both hip at the same sitting. |
