Hip Implants.
Understanding Revision Hip Replacement Surgery
Revision hip replacement is a specialized procedure performed when an existing hip replacement surgery fails, implant loosens, wears out or causes complications such as infections. Compared to primary hip replacement, this surgery is more complex and requires advanced expertise. At Jhansi Orthopaedic Hospital, Dr. Gaurav Gupta provides comprehensive revision care, from diagnosis and surgical planning to recovery and rehabilitation. With modern techniques, bone grafting options, and customized implants, revision surgery restores mobility, relieves pain, and helps patients regain their quality of life safely and effectively.
When Revision Hip Replacement is Needed
Implant Wear and Loosening Over Time
Loosened implants can cause pain, instability, and reduced hip function, requiring surgical revision.
Deep Hip Joint Infection Developing
Severe joint infections may damage tissue and bone, making revision surgery essential for recovery.
Frequent Hip Dislocations After Surgery
Recurrent dislocations of the artificial joint reduce mobility and require corrective revision surgery.
Fractures Around Hip Implant Occurring Unexpectedly
Surrounding bone fractures may occur near implants, often requiring reconstruction with revision surgery.
Osteolysis and Bone Loss Around Implant
The body's reaction may cause bone loss near the implant, weakening hip structure.
Reaction to Metal Components of Implant
Allergic or inflammatory reactions to implant metals may lead to pain, swelling, and revision needs.
Happy Patients...
Real stories of lasting relief
Before my surgery, even climbing stairs or walking to the market felt impossible. The constant pain made me dependent on others, and I had almost given up hope of living a pain-free life. After the surgery and rehabilitation, I can now move around comfortably, do light exercises, and even play with my grandchildren without any difficulty.
Treatment Protocols
Comprehensive Diagnostic Imaging Before Surgical Planning
X-rays, CT scans, or MRIs assess implant condition, bone loss, and tissue health, ensuring accurate surgical planning before revision hip replacement.
Complex Implant Removal and Bone Reconstruction Techniques
Old implants are carefully removed; bone grafts rebuild sockets or canals if needed, restoring structural strength for new prosthesis placement.
Advanced Prosthesis Selection for Improved Stability and Function
Larger, specialized implants replace damaged ones, reducing dislocation risk while restoring natural joint movement and stability.
Structured Rehabilitation and Postoperative Care Program
Customized rehabilitation focuses on physiotherapy, wound care, and gradual activity resumption, ensuring safe recovery and restored mobility.

Doctors may order X-rays, CT scans, or MRIs to evaluate implant condition, detect bone loss, and plan accurate revision surgery.
Patients usually stay longer than primary surgery, ranging from 5 to 10 days, depending on complications, healing progress, and rehabilitation requirements.
Risks include infection, blood clots, dislocation, nerve injury, or bone fractures. Choosing an experienced surgeon reduces complications and improves recovery outcomes.
Most patients begin walking with assistance in a few days, gradually progressing to independence with physiotherapy over several weeks.
Yes. Recovery is more challenging due to bone loss and implant removal, requiring structured rehabilitation, physiotherapy, and close medical supervision.
Yes. Bone grafts help rebuild sockets or canals damaged by implant wear, ensuring better stability for the new prosthesis.
