Hip replacement surgery (hip arthroplasty) is a proven procedure to relieve pain, improve mobility, and restore quality of life for patients with severe hip arthritis, avascular necrosis, or hip fractures. With advanced techniques like minimally invasive and robotic‑assisted surgery, recovery has become faster and more predictable. At Vivekananda Hospital, we offer affordable, transparent hip replacement packages with expert orthopaedic care. This guide provides a detailed breakdown of hip replacement costs in Hyderabad, implant options, recovery, and answers to common questions.

📌 Quick Facts: At Vivekananda Hospital, total hip replacement starts at ₹1,50,000 (all‑inclusive). Success rates exceed 95% at 10‑15 years. Most implants last 20‑25 years.

What is Hip Replacement Surgery?

Hip replacement involves removing damaged cartilage and bone from the hip joint and replacing it with an artificial implant (prosthesis). It is recommended for patients with osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, avascular necrosis, or hip fractures that significantly impair mobility and cause chronic pain. The procedure can be total (replacing both the ball and socket) or partial (replacing only the femoral head).

Modern techniques include minimally invasive surgery (smaller incisions) and robotic‑assisted surgery (precision implant placement), both offering faster recovery and better outcomes.
