Hip resurfacing arthroplasty is a type of hip replacement surgery that preserves more of the patient’s femoral bone. Instead of removing the entire femoral head, the surgeon caps it with a smooth metal covering. The socket (acetabulum) is also resurfaced with a matching implant liner or shell. It is most commonly discussed for active patients with advanced hip arthritis who may benefit from bone preservation.

Hip resurfacing is a type of hip replacement surgery that preserves more of the patient’s thighbone (femur) than a traditional total hip replacement. It replaces the worn joint surfaces of the hip with metal components shaped to match the joint. It is most commonly discussed for younger or more active patients with advanced hip arthritis, but candidacy varies by clinician and case. It is performed by orthopedic surgeons in a hospital or surgical center setting.

Hip replacement is a surgery that replaces a damaged hip joint with artificial parts. It is most commonly used for advanced hip arthritis and certain hip fractures. The goal is to reduce pain and improve function when other treatments are not enough. It is also called hip arthroplasty in clinical settings.

Hip replacement surgery is an operation that replaces a painful, damaged hip joint with artificial parts called implants. It is most often used for advanced hip arthritis and certain hip fractures. The goal is to restore joint movement and reduce pain when other options are not enough. Orthopedic surgeons perform it in hospitals and surgical centers.

Hip reduction under sedation is a method clinicians use to put a dislocated hip joint back into place. It combines a controlled joint maneuver (“reduction”) with medications that reduce pain, anxiety, and muscle tension (“sedation”). It is most commonly performed in emergency and acute orthopedic settings after a traumatic hip dislocation or a prosthetic hip dislocation. The goal is to restore normal joint alignment and protect nearby nerves, blood vessels, and joint cartilage.

Hip radiographic series is a set of X-ray images of the hip region taken in more than one view. It is commonly used in orthopedic clinics, emergency departments, and sports medicine settings. The goal is to visualize the hip joint and nearby bones from different angles. These views help clinicians describe alignment, joint space, and bony shape in a standardized way.

A Hip radiograph is an X-ray image of the hip joint and nearby bones. It helps clinicians look for bone and joint changes that may explain hip pain or limited movement. It is commonly used in primary care, urgent care, emergency medicine, orthopedics, and sports medicine. It is often a first-line imaging test because it is quick and widely available.

Hip range of motion exercises are movements used to assess or improve how far the hip joint can move. They are commonly used in physical therapy, sports medicine, and orthopedic care. They may be performed actively by the patient or passively with assistance. They are often part of hip pain evaluation, rehabilitation, and general joint health programs.

Hip quadrant test is a hands-on physical exam maneuver used to evaluate hip and groin pain. It places the hip in specific positions while a clinician applies gentle pressure and movement. It is commonly used in orthopedics, sports medicine, and physical therapy exams. It helps screen for issues inside the hip joint, such as labral or cartilage irritation.

Hip preservation surgery is a group of procedures designed to treat hip problems while keeping the patient’s natural hip joint. It is commonly used for structural hip conditions that cause pain, stiffness, or mechanical symptoms. The goal is to correct underlying anatomy or repair injured soft tissues rather than replace the joint. It is often discussed in sports medicine and orthopedics for younger or active patients with early joint changes.
