About this Procedure
A bilateral total hip replacement replaces both hip joints with artificial ones. In each hip, the NHS explains, the ball at the top of the thigh bone and the socket in the pelvis are replaced with metal, ceramic or plastic parts. Depending on your health and your surgeon's advice, both hips may be replaced during the same hospital admission or in two planned stages.
It may be considered when both hips are painful and stiff enough to have a big effect on your life and other treatments have not worked. As with a single hip replacement, the most common cause is osteoarthritis, with other causes including rheumatoid arthritis and damage after an injury. Replacing both hips is a bigger undertaking than replacing one, so your general health and fitness are assessed carefully before the plan is agreed.
Hip replacement is performed under a spinal anaesthetic (you are awake but numb from the waist down) or a general anaesthetic. The NHS says a single hip replacement usually takes about 1 to 2 hours; for both hips, your surgeon will advise how long the operation and hospital stay are likely to be. Physiotherapy starts soon after surgery to get you walking safely, and recovery takes several months.
