Hip replacement (hip arthroplasty) is a surgical procedure where a damaged or worn-out hip joint is replaced with an artificial implant. This is usually recommended when non-surgical treatments — such as medicines, physiotherapy, or injections — no longer provide relief.
The artificial joint is designed to mimic natural hip movement, enabling patients to walk, bend, and move without pain.
Hip replacement surgery may be the right choice if you:
Have severe osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis
Suffer from hip fractures or injuries
Experience stiffness and reduced mobility
Have persistent pain in the hip or groin — even at rest
Struggle with daily activities like walking or climbing stairs
When hip pain interferes with your daily routine and mental well-being, surgery may be the right option. Dr. Kulkarni is often consulted as the Best Hip Replacement Surgeon in Navi Mumbai for his experience and outcomes.
You may be a candidate if:
Pain continues despite medication or physiotherapy
You feel discomfort when sitting, standing, or sleeping
Walking short distances is difficult
Imaging (X-ray/MRI) shows significant joint damage
A detailed consultation with Dr. Kulkarni will confirm if surgery is your best option.
Total Hip Replacement Surgery in Navi Mumbai The most common type, involving the replacement of both the ball (femoral head) and the socket (acetabulum) with prosthetic components.
Partial Hip Replacement — Only the damaged ball is replaced, often for older patients with fractures.
Bipolar surgery is a more advanced form of partial replacement that utilizes a dual-bearing system to enhance mobility and reduce wear on the joint. We offer expert evaluation and care for those considering Bipolar Surgery in Navi Mumbai.
Hip Resurfacing — Bone-preserving procedure where the ball is reshaped and capped — best for younger, active patients.
Dr. Kulkarni will recommend the most suitable technique for long-term success.
For patients with severe damage in both hips, both can be replaced in a single surgery — if overall health allows. This reduces overall recovery time and improves mobility sooner.
Anesthesia (general or spinal) is administered
A small incision is made near the hip
Damaged bone and cartilage are removed
Prosthetic components are placed
Incision is closed and dressing applied
Dr. Kulkarni often uses minimally invasive and robotic-assisted methods for greater precision and faster recovery — making Orthorobo a preferred center for hip surgery in Navi Mumbai.
