Bilateral AVN Hip Successfully Treated with Total Hip Replacement

Case Highlight – Balanku Hospital

At Balanku Hospital, we specialize in advanced orthopedic treatments that restore mobility and improve quality of life. We are pleased to share the successful recovery of Mr. Sheikh Sameer, who was treated for bilateral avascular necrosis (AVN) of the hip joints.

Understanding the Condition

Avascular necrosis (AVN) of the hip is a serious condition in which reduced blood supply leads to bone damage and collapse of the femoral head. When both hips are affected, patients experience:

• Severe hip pain

• Difficulty in walking

• Restricted daily activities

• Progressive joint damage

In Mr. Sheikh Sameer’s case, both hip joints were involved, significantly affecting his mobility and quality of life.

The Treatment Plan

After detailed clinical evaluation and imaging studies, the orthopedic team at Balanku Hospital recommended Bilateral Total Hip Replacement (THR) as the most effective solution to relieve pain and restore function.

The patient successfully underwent Bilateral Total Hip Replacement surgery, performed with precision using advanced joint replacement techniques. Our orthopedic department is also experienced in complex reconstruction methods, including Ilizarov techniques, ensuring comprehensive care for a wide range of orthopedic conditions.

Post-Surgical Recovery

Postoperatively, Mr. Sheikh Sameer was placed on a structured rehabilitation and physiotherapy program. With proper postoperative care and guided mobilization:

• Pain significantly reduced

• Hip movement improved

• Walking ability was restored

Outcome

Mr. Sheikh Sameer has now made a good recovery and is able to carry out his daily activities comfortably. His outcome reflects the effectiveness of timely surgical intervention and expert orthopedic care.
