Explore Anterior Hip Replacement

If you suffer from arthritis, hip pain and stiffness, a procedure called anterior hip replacement is a less-invasive procedure than a full hip replacement.

At Jupiter Medical Center, anterior hip replacement is performed using the state-of-the-art Hana® table, which enables the orthopedic surgeon to position the patient in a way that allows replacement of the hip through a single incision.

The benefits of anterior hip replacement over traditional hip replacement include:

• Less muscle trauma, pain, and limping
• Earlier and easier mobility and recovery, including immediately after surgery
• Shorter hospital stay
• Decreased chance of hip dislocation

You and your surgeon will decide when the time is right for surgery.
