- Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA) - involves the removal of both the acetabulum and head of the femur.
- Partial or Hemi Hip Replacement - only the head of the femur is replaced.
It is usually performed on those with chronic hip pain, often associated with old age, but can also be performed in cases of severe accidents, bone fractures, osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, bone tumors, avascular necrosis, and other bone abnormalities.
