Bristol Hip Resurfacing

Bristol Hip Resurfacing is a surgical procedure designed to treat hip joint damage, often due to arthritis. Instead of removing the entire socket and ball of the hip joint, the surgeon reshapes and caps the existing femoral head (ball), preserving more of the natural bone. This approach maintains better joint stability and allows for more natural movement. The procedure is typically suitable for younger, active patients and can lead to quicker recovery compared to traditional hip replacement. It provides pain relief and improved function while conserving bone, making future surgeries easier if needed.
