Customized Surgical
Mastery for Every Hip
Total Hip Arthroplasty
Dr. Hesham Al-Khateeb, celebrated among the top hip replacement surgeons in Dubai, offers cutting-edge total hip replacement surgery. This procedure, also known as total hip arthroplasty, is a life-altering solution for those battling severe hip joint wear or injury, replacing the damaged joint with a superior-quality prosthetic for pain-free mobility.
Partial Hip Replacement
For patients with damage localized to specific parts of the hip, Dr. Al-Khateeb provides partial hip replacement. This targeted approach replaces only the damaged section, preserving as much of the natural hip structure as possible, which can lead to a quicker recovery and less post-operative discomfort.
Anterior Hip Replacement
For a less invasive approach, Dr. Al-Khateeb specializes in anterior hip replacement. This technique allows for muscle preservation, resulting in faster recovery, reduced pain, and enhanced function of the hip.
Minimally Invasive Hip Surgery
Dr. Al-Khateeb specializes in minimally invasive hip surgery, emphasizing smaller incisions and less tissue disruption. This technique offers the benefits of reduced pain, shorter hospital stays, and faster return to daily activities, maintaining the highest standards of surgical care.
Hip Resurfacing Surgery
An alternative to total hip replacement, hip resurfacing is ideal for younger, more active patients. This procedure involves reshaping and capping the femoral head with a smooth metal covering, preserving more of the bone and providing a more natural hip movement post-surgery.
Hip Revision Surgery
Dr. Hesham excels in hip revision surgery, a complex procedure that involves replacing a worn-out or failed hip prosthesis with a new implant. This surgery requires exceptional skill and meticulous planning to ensure the best outcomes for patients needing correction or improvement from a previous hip replacement.
Personalized Implants
Dr. Hesham’s Signature Approach
Pioneering in personalized care, Dr. Al-Khateeb offers custom-fitted hip implants. Unlike conventional implants, these are designed to match the unique anatomy of each patient’s hip, ensuring more natural movement, increased comfort, and superior functionality.
These implants also support easier fulfillment of prayer practices, addressing significant cultural and religious considerations.
Understanding Hip Conditions
The Need for Surgery
Dr. Hesham Al-Khateeb provides expert care for severe hip conditions that significantly impact life quality. These include:
- Osteoarthritis: Degeneration of joint cartilage causing pain and stiffness.
- Rheumatoid Arthritis: Inflammation from an autoimmune disorder leading to joint damage.
- Post-traumatic Arthritis: Arthritis following hip injuries.
- Avascular Necrosis: Loss of bone tissue due to reduced blood supply.
- Hip Dysplasia: Congenital misalignment or shaping of the hip joint.
When conservative treatments don’t offer relief, surgical hip replacement by Dr. Hesham can be a life-changing solution, restoring mobility and reducing pain.
