Robotic Total Hip Replacement

Hip arthritis can gradually make simple activities such as walking, climbing stairs, getting into a car and even sleeping increasingly painful. When medications, physiotherapy and lifestyle modifications no longer provide relief, Total Hip Replacement offers a reliable solution to restore mobility and improve quality of life.

Today, Robotic Total Hip Replacement combines the experience of an expert surgeon with advanced computer-assisted technology to deliver highly accurate, personalised and predictable results.

What is Robotic Total Hip Replacement?

Robotic Hip Replacement is an advanced surgical technique that uses real-time computer guidance to help your surgeon plan and perform the operation with exceptional precision.

The robot does not perform the surgery. It is an intelligent surgical assistant that provides detailed information about your hip anatomy, allowing the surgeon to optimise implant positioning, restore leg length and achieve excellent hip stability.

Who Can Benefit?

Robotic Hip Replacement is suitable for patients with:

• Osteoarthritis of the Hip
• Rheumatoid Arthritis
• Avascular Necrosis (AVN)
• Hip Dysplasia
• Post-traumatic Hip Arthritis

Surgery is generally recommended when pain becomes persistent, mobility is significantly reduced and non-surgical treatments no longer provide adequate relief.

Advantages of Robotic Hip Replacement

Robotic technology offers several important benefits:

• Accurate implant positioning
• Better restoration of leg length and hip biomechanics
• Improved hip stability with reduced risk of dislocation
• Personalised surgery based on individual anatomy
• Less soft tissue trauma
• Reduced post-operative pain
• Faster recovery and rehabilitation
• Improved implant longevity
• Earlier return to daily activities

By tailoring surgery to each patient's unique anatomy, robotic technology helps achieve a more natural-feeling hip and excellent long-term function.

Why Precision Matters in Total Hip Replacement?

Every patient's hip anatomy is unique. Robotic technology allows your surgeon to:

• Select the most appropriate implant size
• Position implants with greater accuracy
• Restore hip mechanics and leg length
• Assess stability during surgery
• Make real-time adjustments for the best possible outcome

This personalised approach aims to improve comfort, function and implant longevity.

Recovery After Robotic Total Hip Replacement Surgery

Modern pain management and enhanced recovery protocols allow most patients to:

• Stand and walk within hours of surgery
• Return home after a short hospital stay of 2–3 days
• Begin physiotherapy immediately
• Wound check with removal of sutures / staples at 2 weeks
• Progress to normal daily activities within a few weeks
• Drive a car by 4 weeks
• Continue improving strength and mobility over the following months

A structured rehabilitation programme is essential for achieving the best long-term results.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Is robotic hip replacement safer than conventional surgery?

Robotic technology enhances surgical precision and helps optimise implant positioning, but successful outcomes also depend on the surgeon's expertise, careful planning and rehabilitation.

How long will I stay in hospital?

Most patients stay 2–3 days, although this may vary depending on individual recovery and overall health.

When can I walk after surgery?

Most patients begin walking with the assistance of a physiotherapist on the day of surgery or the following morning.

How long does recovery take?

Most patients return to routine daily activities within 4–6 weeks, with continued improvement over the next few months.
