New technique revolutionizing hip-replacement surgery
“It’s a ‘micro-invasive’ technique,” says Grandic.
And it offers myriad advantages over other techniques.
“All muscles, tendons, ligaments and soft tissue are spared, and the hip socket is never twisted into unnatural positions during surgery,” Grandic explains.
Thus, he says, patients experience little or no post-operative discomfort; are able to walk immediately, with no restrictions; and are usually discharged from the hospital within 24 to 48 hours.
