Hip joint replacement or total hip replacement is surgery to replace all or part of the hip joint with an artificial device to restore joint movement (prosthesis). There are different types hip replacements.

 

If a hemi-arthroplasty is performed, either the femoral head or the hip socket (acetabulum) will be replaced with a prosthetic device.

 

In a total hip replacement, both the femoral head and the hip socket is replaced by the prosthetic device.
