How the Metal Hip Replacement Works

In a normal hip joint, the upper part of the thigh bone, known as the femoral head, fits into a socket in the pelvis, known as the acetabulum. In a metal hip replacement, the surgeon replaces the femoral head with a metal ball and reinforces the acetabulum socket with a metal cup. The metal ball at the femoral head is typically larger than the bone it replaces. This ensures the joint’s stability and prevent dislocation of the hip joint. A metal hip replacement also lasts longer than similar components made from plastic.
