Revision Hip Arthroplasty Specialist Surgeon Singapore

Complex Reconstruction for Failed Hip Implants and Acetabular Bone Loss 

We manage revision hip arthroplasty as a sophisticated engineering solution to prosthetic failure. Under the clinical direction of Dr. Saminathan Suresh Nathan, we specialize in the management of osteolysis, implant loosening, and recurrent instability. Leveraging our deep background in oncological limb salvage, we are uniquely equipped to handle massive acetabular and femoral bone loss using specialized revision stems, trabecular metal augments, and custom-engineered reconstructive solutions.

Surgical Considerations

• Management of Acetabular Defects: Utilizing specialized augments or "cup-and-cage" constructs to restore the center of rotation when the native pelvis is compromised.

• Extended Trochanteric Osteotomy (ETO): Employing controlled surgical fractures when necessary to safely remove well-fixed femoral components while preserving the muscular envelope.

• Modular Revision Stems: Utilizing tapered, fluted titanium stems to achieve distal fixation in cases where the proximal femur has lost its structural integrity.
