Total Hip Replacement (THR) For Dysplasia Hip With SRom Stem

Description

This video transcript details a surgical presentation by Anoop Jhurnani on the challenges and techniques of total hip replacement for patients with hip dysplasia. The case study focuses on a 55-year-old female patient suffering from bilateral hip pain and longstanding arthritis. Throughout the procedure, the importance of careful preoperative planning, correct implant choice, and precise surgical techniques using the SRom modular stem is emphasized. The video outlines the evaluation of the patient’s condition, including range of motion and X-ray findings that demonstrate the need for specialized surgical approaches due to the unique anatomical challenges presented by dysplastic hips.



Key points include addressing the inadequacy of femoral head coverage, adjusting the version of hip components during surgery to prevent instability, and ensuring a well-fitted uncemented cup and modular stem for optimal joint function. The surgeon illustrates the surgical techniques for exposure, bone preparation, and implant positioning, highlighting the importance of achieving the correct limb length and offset. The outcome showcases a stable and pain-free result for the patient post-surgery, underlining the effectiveness of the SRom implant and the critical nature of detailed surgical methodology in achieving successful hip reconstruction.
