Charnley hip system
The Charnley hip system is a type of artificial hip replacement designed to restore joint function and reduce pain. It typically involves replacing the damaged ball-and-socket parts of the hip with metal or ceramic components, which are fitted securely into the thigh bone (femur) and pelvis. The system emphasizes a low-friction, durable design to improve movement and longevity of the implant. It is widely used because of its proven success in restoring mobility and reducing discomfort for patients with hip joint damage, often from arthritis or injury.
