Understanding robotic hip replacement
Robotic hip replacement is a minimally invasive surgery that replaces a damaged hip joint with sub-millimetre robotic precision.
A 3D model of your hip is created from imaging. The surgeon plans the cup angle and stem position, and the robot ensures it's executed exactly — preventing leg-length discrepancy and dislocation risk.
Signs you may need robotic hip replacement
Hip pain that limits walking, sleeping or sitting often points to advanced hip arthritis or avascular necrosis.
- Persistent groin or hip pain
- Stiffness after sitting or driving
- Limp while walking
- Difficulty putting on shoes or socks
- Pain disturbing sleep
- Avascular necrosis or arthritis on imaging
How robotic hip replacement is done in Delhi
Approximately 90 minutes under spinal or general anaesthesia.
- 3D planning of cup and stem placement
- Small incision (8–10 cm) via direct anterior or posterior approach
- Robotic arm guides bone preparation precisely
- Implant placed, leg length verified in real time
- Wound closed and patient mobilised same day
Benefits of robotic hip replacement
Smaller scar, equal leg length, lower dislocation risk, faster recovery.
- Sub-millimetre cup and stem placement
- Equal leg length post-op
- Accurate implant positioning to reduce dislocation risk
- Walk same day in many cases
- Smaller incision, faster wound healing
- Long-lasting implant (20+ years)
Recovery after robotic hip replacement
Walk same day. Return to office in 4 weeks. Full recovery in 8 weeks.
Procedure completed in 60–90 minutes.
Stand and take a few assisted steps.
Walk independently with support and go home.
Climb stairs and resume light daily activity.
Drive, work, walk long distances comfortably.
Return to sports, travel and high-activity life.
