Total Hip Arthroplasty, by Dr.Angel Villamor (English subtitles)

Dr. Villamor, traumatologist and orthopedic surgeon, shows in this video the most accurate technique to solve replace hip joint. The hip is the joint where the femoral head and the pelvis connect. This joint loads weight what means wear and tear of the joint plus the progressive deterioration of the cartilage, which normally ends up becoming as osteoarthritis. This osteoarthritis can be initially treated with analgesics, anti-inflammatories, perhaps physiotherapy, intra articular injections... but there comes a time when pain, limitation of mobility is so crippling that surgery becomes the only solution. The type of surgery for this condition or degenerative process is called arthroplasty or total hip replacement. There are several ways to place a hip artificial prosthesis with different angles and of various sizes.
