The evolution of total hip replacement surgery, from early attempts to modern cemented and non-cemented prostheses, is detailed. This summary covers indications, implant choices, and potential complications for hip arthroplasty.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Biomedical Engineering

Context:

  • The development of total hip replacement (THR) is a significant advancement in orthopedic surgery.
  • Historical context traces the progression from early experimental procedures to current surgical standards.

Purpose:

  • To outline the historical evolution and key milestones in total hip replacement surgery.
  • To detail the indications, surgical techniques, and implant considerations for hip arthroplasty.

Summary:

  • Early hip arthroplasty attempts began in 1923, with significant progress in 1953 by Professor Marino Zuco.
  • The introduction of methyl methacrylate cement by Charnley in 1960 revolutionized total hip substitution.
  • Current practice involves cemented or non-cemented prostheses, chosen based on patient age and bone structure, addressing pathologies like osteoarthritis.
