Excision femoral head and neck

This is the story of a 50 years old lady.

She was born with congenita hip dysplasia

As a child she was in and out of the hospital for multiple operations to correct her hip defect

 

As she grew up, her leg became short due to bad hip. This leg length inequality led to wear and tear in the opposite knee requiring replacement

 

She became wheel chair bound due to pain in her right hip and short leg

 

Picture during surgery shows trabecular metal augments supporting the cup. Trial fit on 3D hip model made the surgery easy and perfect fit was achieved on the table

 

She also needed correction of her thigh bone (Femur)

 

Now she is out of wheel chair and able to walk with support of a walking stick
