This is one of the best videos I’ve seen on hip replacement surgery. Dr. Sizer does a great job explaining and updating the evolution of the procedure. I could imagine it as he describes; powerful and effective speaker.
I had my hip replaced in 2000 by Dr. Sharkey of Rothman Ortho. I report that I have had no setbacks or negative follow ups. I have been pain free since the procedure and have also dropped my handicap in golf from a 33 for 9 holes, down to a 4 this past season. Most rounds I do walk also, just use a pull cart. Thank you Rothman!
I had all of these done with both of my hip replacements, spinal anesthetic and twilight sleep. My second hip replace 4 months after 1st was 75% faster recovery. Off all medication after 3 days, only Tylenol. My therapy after surgery was mild. My new hips has given me my life back! Beyond thankful for this surgery!
Hello! I’m glad it’s worked out great! Did docs say that you will need another hip replacement if so how many years? or since it’s upgraded it’s no longer needed?
@@analeymillo826 My doctor said my new hips should last me my life time. If I should need a revision later on I take calcium supplements to keep my bones strong in older age. 😊
Excellent video, thank you very informative for a hip replacement patient as myself recently with Rothman, answering questions I had. Recovery is coming along well.
This was so helpful. Great information that the layman can understand. I would like to add that pre op strengthening exercises such as quad and glutes are helpful towards post op recovery. I had my hip replaced 5 years ago and did great. (Not as difficult as the knees!).
Presentation well done and appreciated. I'm 52 years old with extreame left hip arthritus and was told I'm excellent candidate for hip replacement. - learning, learning, learning.
I heard do it at your earliest convenience. My rheumatologist told my brother over and over again hip replacement surgery is one of the most successful surgeries but he has been dragging his feet(and his hip) and now he can hardly even stand without support. However I wonder how long the replacement last, 15 years or 20 years?
@@gerardocarrillo56 At first my brother was just dragging his feet, now he is worried about COVID infection while hospitalized and during convalescence and physical training. But he will do it. Good luck to you and your friend. BTW, my brother is in his mid 70's.
I am a cloud network engineer as well as building them. I am 63, and actively working. I understand Ceramic replacement has the best results for active people polyurethane crossmember is not. Is this true? The biggest concern with COC is if one falls and it takes an impact, it might shatter.
I need 2 hip replacements, 2 knee replacements, 2 large toe replacements, 5 squashed disc's, Scoliosis, Osteoporosis and Osteoarthritis in my spine, both hands have carpel tunnel syndrome and will adventually need an operation in both. This was due to a young male stealing a car and he hit me head on at 120kms per hour and he spun out of control and hit me in the drivers side door of my car, in 2017 i had a bladder prolapse lift, band was used and the Surgeon drilled into my pelvic bone on either side. I am booked in for my first hip replacement in July, i am worried about my pelvic bone while the sugeon does my hip surgery, can you please tell me is it to dangerous to have hip surgery due to my pelvis already been drilled into ? Kind regards Michelle
I have always wondered if the outcome of a THA D/T hip fx with DJD is less optimal when compared to an elective THA 2/2 DJD w/o the fracture component. What do you think?
Hi! I was born with my hip out of socket. They want me now at age 25 to get a hip replacement because I am in pain. What do you suggest as far as waiting it out or going under?? Appreciate your input doc
I’m 21 and had hip surgery in June, it will be a year this June Andy hip is still tight, I think I might need a total hip replacement because I miss my mobility and motion and I’m a athlete I don’t know if I should get a total hip replacement or wait though
I used to be an Athlete too, but due to injury I injured my both hips with Avascular necrosis, I am 29 had my core decompression done when I was 26, my next step is to have total hip replacement but I am just waiting for better materials which lasts longer.
On day 7 of anterior hip replacement..
The progress I'm making daily is nothing short of miraculous.

I am 30 5 foot 1 and 95lbs and I need a hip replacement. Great Information
I had both done 2 year apart and had lateral - no problems at all !
I am also a chronic pain patient. T6-T7 fusion and now a very damaged right hip.
Great presentation
Great, very informative thank you all profesionals

What is the current feeling about dual mobility hip joints?
PLease tell me what options I have if I am highly allergic to nickel? Been living with hip pain for years. Age 69 Thanks
Not to mention the metal to metal in hip resurfacing releasing toxic cobalt and chromium ions into the bloodstream
That practice (metal on metal) is no longer encouraged.
Which device has the least debris wear?
very informative!

I wish you the very best. At 73 I just had total hip replacement 7 days ago.
14:50 Non-opiod; allows less blood loss; less blood clot.
I heard that after total hip replacement surgery you have to do it again after 8 to 10 years...is that correct?
No not now. Technology means they now last 25+ years
25-30 dual is 30-35
Thank u
Kinda of a rough start

@@LalitYen dude they are lasting like 20-40 years easily.
@@ridef0rlife is it? I thought fir an active person it would be only 10 -15 but good to hear that there are better materials now
@@LalitYen Yah dude !! idk if better materials are already in thr market. this thing has destroyed my personal relationships and academic life
@@ridef0rlife i dont think so an active person can only sustain it for 10 years
Inferior to resurfacing. And resurfacing is the only way to skydive, impact sports or return to pro sports.
