Hip replacement is a surgical procedure wherein a worn-out or dysfunctional hip joint is replaced with a prosthetic implant. A hip replacement surgery is primarily carried out with the intention of restoring mobility and offering pain-relief typically associated with arthritis and hip injuries. Hip replacement implants are precise components manufactured to exacting dimensions using high-quality, approved materials. The benefits of a hip replacement surgery differ from one patient to another, and so do the risks. While it may be difficult to pin down the exact outcome of a hip replacement surgery, medical practitioners can base their judgment on factors such as the patient’s age, sex, activity level, weight, and the type of implant. The longevity of the implant can be determined based on the conditions of the surgery and disease diagnosis.

Some of the FDA approved hip replacement implants that are currently used in hip replacement surgeries are as follows:
- Metal-on-metal: These feature a metal ball designed to fit into a metal socket, coupled with a metal stem that is fixed into the thigh bone.
- Metal-on-polyethylene: These are the most commonly-used implants for hip replacement. They are comprised of a plastic (polyethylene) socket and a metal stem and ball.
- Ceramic-on-metal: In these implants, the socket is made of metal whereas the ball is made using ceramic.
- Ceramic-on-polyethylene: This type of implant is preferred for younger patients as it is less susceptible to joint wear and has better lubrication. Such implants consist of a socket that’s made of polyethylene and a ball made using metal.
- Ceramic-on-ceramic: Such hip replacement implants feature a socket with a ceramic lining and a ceramic ball.
Reports show that in 2011, nearly 0.5 million Americans had to undergo hip replacement surgery as they were suffering from osteoarthritis – the most common form of arthritis in the U.S. and many other countries. The World Health Organization predicts that osteoarthritis will be the fourth leading non-fatal disease by 2020 and is likely to immensely add to the global medical care burden. Growing incidences of rheumatoid arthritis, hip injuries, osteoarthritis, and an obese and aging population will provide an impetus to the market.
Globally, North America is the leader in the hip replacement implants market. It is closely followed by Europe, where a large arthritic population exists. The favorable reimbursement policies in Europe are also a factor fuelling growth here. In other regions such as Asia Pacific, the market for hip replacement implants is likely to grow in the backdrop of an increasing number of hip injuries and diseases.
