Artificial hip joint

Various pathological processes in the hip joint cause pain in the affected joint and adversely affect the quality of life. If the ongoing conservative methods of treatment are already unsuccessful, then it becomes necessary to replace the pathological hip joint with the so-called artificial joint.

An artificial joint is a complex structure made of metal, ceramics, and special plastic materials. Various components of the endoprosthesis consist of titanium, other metals, ceramics, polyethylene, and are implanted into the bones during the operation of endoprosthesis replacement using cemented and cementless methods. In some cases, a combination of cementless and cemented endoprosthetics is used.

Most endoprostheses consist of a stem, socket and head. As a rule, an additional polyethylene liner is used to cushion and improve the sliding qualities of the contacting parts.
