Total Hip Replacement is performed for hips that are painful and dysfunctional and that are not amenable to joint preserving surgery. The surgery is generally extremely reliable but does entail some risks. Since most of the hip replacement surgeries performed by Dr. Murphy are done using less invasive surgical techniques, we’ve included more information about this topic under the tab titled "minimally invasive hip surgery".
Below are a series of links that address many of the scientific aspects of total hip replacement surgery including implant design considerations and clinical results of total hip arthroplasty.
