Hip

Hip arthritis is a common condition that affects the smooth cartilage covering the ends of the bones in the hip joint, leading to pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility. When conservative treatments fail to relieve symptoms, advanced surgical techniques offer effective solutions.

Dr. Avino specializes in advanced hip replacement techniques that are designed to enhance patient comfort, minimize recovery time, and improve surgical outcomes. The Direct Anterior Approach (DAA) offers a muscle-sparing technique that leads to faster recovery, as it avoids disrupting surrounding muscles and tendons. The Bikini Incision Hip Replacement uses a small, cosmetically favorable incision in the natural skin crease, reducing postoperative pain and scarring.

For individuals seeking the latest in precision technology, Dr. Avino offers Robotic-Assisted Hip Replacement, which utilizes advanced technology to assist in preoperative planning and intraoperative accuracy. This approach allows for highly personalized implant placement, optimizing alignment and improving long-term outcomes. Patients benefit from reduced discomfort, better joint function, and a quicker return to daily activities.

Dr. Avino also offers Same Day Hip Replacement, enabling eligible patients to undergo hip replacement surgery and return home the same day. This technique, combined with enhanced anesthesia and modern recovery protocols, minimizes hospital stays while ensuring a safe and efficient recovery.

These advanced approaches collectively help restore mobility, reduce pain, and significantly improve the quality of life for patients suffering from mild to moderate arthritis and severe hip injuries.
