In life, many people due to certain congenital factors or due to overstrain and trauma, resulting in joint damage, moving the joints painful, and slowly become more and more afraid to use, in fact, as long as an artificial joint replacement surgery, solve the big problem, both to improve the function of joint movement, but also to relieve the pain of torture. How much does it cost to replace a joint? There are two most common types of artificial joint replacement surgery: hip artificial joint replacement surgery and knee artificial joint replacement surgery. The price of the surgery varies a lot depending on the materials used. Hip Artificial Joints There are two types of hip arthroplasties: cemented and uncemented. How to choose Bone cement type is suitable for patients with osteoporosis and poor bone quality, who need to rely on bone cement to fix the artificial joint when installing the artificial joint, and the price is low. The non-cemented type, also known as the biologically fixed type, is suitable for young and middle-aged patients with good bone quality. The price is relatively high. Why should middle-aged people choose non-cemented artificial hip joints? Reason 1: First of all, the non-cemented artificial hip joint allows the bones to slowly grow together with the artificial joint to achieve fixation. When installing this type of artificial joint, it is necessary to fully ensure that the artificial joint and the bone cavity into which it is placed are very well matched in size, so that there is no gap, and the bone in the bone cavity must also have good support and initial fixation, in order to make the artificial joint stable and facilitate the growth of bone in the future. The bone quality of young people meets these requirements, and the healing power of bone is strong. Reason 2: In comparison, if the non-cemented artificial hip joint loosens, there will be disarticulation, and the corrosion of the bone is not so strong, and the amount of missing bone is naturally reduced. If the artificial joint has been used for a long time, especially for more than 10 years, there is always a bad one. In this way, it is easier for middle-aged people to choose a non-cemented artificial hip and have it rebuilt. The cost of artificial joint replacement surgery is generally divided into two parts, the cost of the artificial joint and the cost of treatment. The cost of the artificial joint has been described above, and the cost of treatment includes hospitalization, surgery and medication, etc. Depending on the prosthesis, the cost may vary somewhat. At present, the city’s medical insurance reimburses 5,000 for artificial knee joints and 4.5,000 for artificial hip joints, and most of the treatment costs are reimbursed by the medical insurance except for a small portion of the costs that you pay for yourself.
