Of all the procedures we do in orthopedics, believe it or not the total hip replacement (arthroplasty) consistently ranks at the top.  Other honorable mentions are the knee replacement and carpal tunnel release surgery.

✅ Studies and national registries on hip replacement surgery indicate that over 90% of patients report significant improvements in pain, function, and quality of life.  It is frequently described as one of the most successful treatments in modern medicine, with some studies showing up to 96% of patients would undergo the procedure again.

🚨 Have you or anyone you know had a total hip replacement?  Let me know your experience in the comments.
