Endoprosthesis

Endoprosthesis replacement is an advanced technology that allows restoring the functionalities of damaged joints and returning to a person the joy of movement without pain.

Endoprosthesis replacement is a surgical intervention in the process of which a damaged joint or its part is replaced with an implant. The most common surgical intervention of this type is the endoprosthesis replacement of the hip joint.

Endoprosthesis replacement is performed by a doctor’s prescription in case of the following diseases and pathologies:

coxarthrosis (arthrosis of the hip joint);
aseptic necrosis of the hip joint;
fibrous or bone ankylosis of hip joints;
tumor processes in the head or the neck of the femoral bone;
revision endoprosthesis replacement;

intraarticular fractures of the hip joint;
fractures of the neck of the femoral bone;
pertrochanteric and subtrochanteric fractures;
posttraumatic arthroses and false joints of the neck of the femoral bone.

As a rule, all these diseases and pathologies are accompanied by unpleasant and painful symptoms, up to a complete loss of joint mobility and the ability to walk for a patient.

The following symptoms are possible:

pain in the joint area that aggravates when walking and is often symmetric;
joint stiffness in the morning;
