Hip Hemiarthroplasty Specialist Surgeon Singapore

Rapid Stabilization for Femoral Neck Fractures 

We manage displaced femoral neck fractures through hip hemiarthroplasty, a focused reconstruction of the femoral component. Under the surgical direction of Dr. Saminathan Suresh Nathan, we prioritize rapid mobilization to prevent the systemic complications of prolonged immobility. This procedure is tailored for the physiological demands of the patient, ensuring a stable, load-bearing joint that restores the mechanical axis while minimizing the surgical time and complexity associated with full acetabular replacement. 

Surgical Considerations

• Unipolar vs. Bipolar Selection: Strategic selection of bearing design to minimize acetabular wear and optimize range of motion based on patient activity levels.

• Press-Fit vs. Cemented Fixation: Determining the optimal fixation method intraoperatively to ensure immediate primary stability in varied bone qualities.

• Periprosthetic Fracture Prevention: Meticulous femoral preparation to minimize hoop stresses and prevent cortical compromise during implant insertion.
