Articular Surface Replacement

Articular Surface Replacement (ASR) is a surgical procedure where damaged surfaces of a joint, such as the hip or knee, are replaced with specialized artificial components. These components are designed to mimic the natural shape and function of the joint surfaces, reducing pain and improving mobility. The goal is to restore joint function by replacing worn or damaged cartilage and bone with durable implants, allowing patients to move more comfortably and confidently. ASR procedures are commonly used for advanced joint degeneration from arthritis or injury, offering an effective solution to improve quality of life.
