Mini-incision total hip arthroplasty (joint replacement)

Not all patients are candidates for the two-incision hip procedure.  At MIMIS, we also perform the one-incision “Mini Hip.”  We use traditional surgical techniques and prostheses, but we reduce the size of the incision to about 3 ˝ inches.  Patients usually spend 3 days in the hospital after surgery and experience a significant portion of over-all recovery in the first month—three months for a more complete recovery.
