Detailed information on the design of hip prostheses, Hüfttotalendoprothesen, hip TEP, H TEP

From which parts of one hip (hip-TEP, hip replacements)?

The prosthesis Hüftpfanne: There are a variety of models on the market. The Hüftpfanne will rule today in the cement-free implanted. The model will be cemented in our rarely used. It is a one-piece system consists of a plastic (eg polyethylene / polyethylene with or without an applied metal grid structure).

The pan of cementless hip prosthesis has a modular composition. It is always two parts:

• An outer metal shell
• An internally anchored deposit (Inlay)

Influenced the choice of surgical technique at the hip to heal?

The selection of the appropriate prosthesis and its anchoring is only one part of the decision in the context of a Hüfttotalendoprothese (hip-TEP, HTEP, Totalendoprothese the hip, an artificial hip joint replacement) must be made.

Equally important for a good outcome of the prosthetic hip joint surgery with a speedy and complication-free cure is also the choice of access. Minimally invasive approaches have been enforced for hip replacement because they are particularly gewebeschonend. The soft tissue damage caused by removal of the muscles or damage to the surrounding soft tissues, as well as long incisions avoided. Especially for the walking with the hip major muscle groups at the side hip to be spared the rear access, leading to faster standing and ambulation after the surgical results. Long-lasting irritation of the surrounding bursa, as well as soft-tissue calcifications occur less frequently hereafter.

Not everyone is hip solely caused by changes arthrotische. Especially in younger patients is often restricted by extensions on the thigh bone head and hip.
