Specializing in Avascular Necrosis (AVN) of the hip, severe osteoarthritis, and trauma reconstruction using modern ceramic, uncemented, and dual-mobility implants. Designed for rapid pain relief, joint stability, and long-term durability. Complete cashless Mediclaim, RGHS, and Ayushman Bharat coverage accepted.
Understanding and conditions treated with
Total Hip
Replacement
Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA) is an elective reconstruction procedure to relieve chronic joint pain and restore active mobility when conservative treatments fail.
Common Conditions Treated:
• Avascular Necrosis (AVN) of the Femoral Head (Stages 3 & 4)
• Severe Osteoarthritis and Ankylosing Spondylitis of the Hip
• Femoral Neck Fractures in elderly and active patients
• Rheumatoid Arthritis and Post-Traumatic Joint Degeneration
Surgical care is carried out in dedicated modular laminar airflow theaters at Indus Jaipur Hospital to maintain sterile standards and minimize infection risk.

Prepare for Hip Surgery & Home Recovery
Pre-operative planning at Indus Jaipur Hospital includes comprehensive digital templating, baseline investigations, and pre-anesthesia clearance (PAC) to ensure optimal implant sizing and alignment.
Key steps for a safe home recovery:
• Set up ground-floor accommodation for the initial 2 to 3 weeks to avoid stairs.
• Install a raised toilet seat and secure grab rails in the bathroom.
• Remove loose rugs, foot mats, and electrical cables from walking paths.
• Use a firm, high-seated chair with armrests for proper hip support.

Before the procedure
Hip replacement surgery is performed under regional (spinal/epidural) anesthesia combined with targeted nerve blocks for post-operative comfort. Prophylactic intravenous antibiotics are administered in dedicated laminar airflow operation theaters at Indus Jaipur Hospital to prevent surgical site infection.
During the procedure
Through a muscle-sparing, tissue-preserving approach, the arthritic femoral head and damaged acetabular cartilage are carefully removed. The pelvic socket is resurfaced with a biological, uncemented titanium cup and a low-friction ceramic or highly cross-linked polyethylene liner. An uncemented femoral stem with a ceramic head is precisely seated to recreate natural leg length, offset, and anatomical stability.
After the procedure
You will be monitored in the post-anesthesia recovery unit before moving to your room. Pain management protocols and compression devices ensure patient comfort and prevent deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Under physiotherapist supervision, assisted standing and supported walking typically begin within 24 hours of surgery.
Results
Hip
Replacement
Total hip arthroplasty provides profound, lasting pain relief and restores a smooth, natural gait. Modern uncemented ceramic and dual-mobility implants are engineered for exceptional wear resistance, with an expected lifespan of 20 to 25+ years.
Within 2 to 4 weeks, most patients progress from a walker to independent walking. Low-impact daily activities, driving, and routine exercise can be resumed safely as hip musculature and joint stability strengthen.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q1: Who is the best hip replacement surgeon in Jaipur for advanced, muscle-sparing joint surgery?
Answer: Dr. Neeraj Choudhary (MS Orthopaedics) is a leading joint replacement specialist practicing at Indus Jaipur Hospital, Mansarovar, Jaipur. He specializes in primary, complex, and revision Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA) using advanced muscle-sparing approaches and anatomical reconstruction for long-lasting joint stability and natural mobility.
Q2: What is the most successful surgical treatment for Avascular Necrosis (AVN) of the femoral head?
Answer: For advanced AVN (Stage 3 and Stage 4) where the femoral head has collapsed and articular cartilage is damaged, Total Hip Replacement (THR) is the definitive, permanent gold-standard cure. Using modern uncemented porous-coated titanium stems and ceramic-on-polyethylene or ceramic-on-ceramic articulations, patients achieve complete pain relief and return to full active life.
Q3: Which implant is best for young and active hip replacement patients?
Answer: For young, active patients—especially those suffering from post-COVID or steroid-induced AVN—uncemented ceramic heads with highly cross-linked polyethylene or ceramic liners, as well as Dual-Mobility cups, offer superior wear resistance. These implants minimize dislocation risks and easily last 25 to 30+ years with proper placement.
Q4: Can a patient sit cross-legged and walk normally after hip replacement surgery?
Answer: Yes. With muscle-preserving tissue techniques, precise cup positioning, and modern large-diameter or dual-mobility bearings, patients restore natural hip range of motion. Under clinical supervision and appropriate muscle rehabilitation, many patients safely resume floor-level activities, driving, and unassisted walking.
Q5: Is Total Hip Replacement (THR) covered under RGHS, Ayushman, and private insurance in Jaipur?
Answer: Yes. Full cashless hip replacement surgery is available at Indus Jaipur Hospital, Mansarovar under the Rajasthan Government Health Scheme (RGHS), Mukhya Mantri Ayushman Arogya Yojana, and all major private health insurance TPAs. Pre-authorizations, implant documentation, and hospital stay coverage are handled directly by the hospital insurance desk.
