Most of today’s total hip prostheses are biologically anchored, which means that the surface of the prosthesis is coated with a porous coating that allows your own bone to grow on the surface of the prosthesis to form a strong bond. A small number of prostheses are cement-retained, mainly for older severe osteoporosis cases. In the case of cement-retained prostheses, immediate stability is achieved, allowing weight-bearing walking on the floor early after surgery. However, it takes 6-8 weeks for the bone and the coating of the biologic fixed prosthesis to be firmly combined, so the postoperative weight-bearing time should be based on the patient’s bone quality; for those with good stability of the bone quality and the prosthesis, they are allowed to walk with weight-bearing immediately; for patients with osteoporosis, it is recommended to partially weight-bearing for 6-8 weeks, so that the prosthesis can be firmly fixed. If a drain is placed in the hip joint after surgery, it will be removed in 24-48 hours; a urinary catheter will be removed in 24 hours. If the surgery is performed in a minimally invasive way, such as a minimally invasive bikini approach, recovery is faster than traditional large incision surgery with other approaches because there is very little disruption to the muscles and tendons. The patient’s muscles return to their preoperative state at an early stage, so postoperative walking posture and muscle strength are superior to non-minimally invasive procedures. Post-operative follow-up visits will be scheduled 2-3 times on an outpatient basis at the discretion of the surgeon depending on the patient’s condition. The main purpose of the visits is to check the patient’s recovery progress and provide guidance on the rehabilitation exercises, to test the functional status and the healing of the incision, and to check the status of the prosthesis by X-ray.
