Hip prosthesis surgery consists of replacing the hip joint with an artificial one which will take over the function of the damaged joint. 

This intervention allows patients to maintain an active life from a professional as well as a sporting and leisure time point of view. The use of minimally-invasive surgical approaches such as the “direct anterior approach” means that patients can recover quickly, decreasing the hospital stay and enabling patients to soon return to their daily life. The “direct anterior approach” in which we are a national point of reference, decreases the rate of complications such as luxation and leg-length differences and allows for cosmetic scars to be made such as the “bikini incision” that follows the inguinal fold and means that the small scar can be efficiently hidden.

The operation usually lasts between 1.5 and 2 hours.
