## What Does the Procedure Involve?
During primary hip replacement, the damaged portions of the hip joint are carefully removed and replaced with prosthetic components designed to restore the function of the joint. The specific implant and surgical approach are selected according to the patient's individual anatomy, condition, age, activity level and overall health.
Before surgery, a detailed assessment and appropriate imaging help in planning the procedure and understanding the condition of the joint.
