Partial hip replacement surgery (hemiarthroplasty) can offer significant relief and improved mobility for patients with severe hip damage. However, like any surgical procedure, it’s essential to be aware of the potential risks and complications.
· Infection: Though rare, infections can occur at the surgical site or deeper within the joint.
· Blood Clots: Clots in the leg veins (DVT) or lungs (PE) can form after surgery, especially without proper post-op care.
· Dislocation: The new joint may dislocate, causing pain and the need for repositioning or additional surgery.
· Wear and Tear: Over time, the artificial components can wear down, leading to the need for revision surgery in the future.
While these risks are uncommon, it’s important to discuss them with your surgeon and follow post-operative care recommendations to ensure the best possible outcome.
