Dr. Yale Fillingham - “What’s New in Hip Replacement”

[@stormstargazer3056]

I just had hip replacement surgery 13 days ago. I am 66. This is the first time in my life I have been pain free in my hip. I have had hip dysplasia in both hips from birth.

[@andys8702]

Hi what kind of hip replacement did you get.

[@curtssallee9807]

Wow same time fram for me im 49 dual mobility awesome..walking very normal in 72 hours

[@heinborp1]

I am definitely not pain free. Had hip replacement 6 days ago. Feels like a knife in my hip. Pain just moved to another place from my groin to my hip and thigh.

[@WalkerOne]

I am so happy for you.

[@WalkerOne]

@@heinborp1 this note is 4 months old now, how does it feel now.

[@keithbertke1937]

Just had total hip replacement. At 45 . And have factor 5 blood Disease. And just had another clot in other leg. Need other hip replaced and can't find a Dr. Crazy enough to do the surgery.. this sucks.but love the video to educate me more. While I live in pain.just got to keep moving, take chances..

[@thomashynes4042]

I had my first hip replacement in 2012 at age 48 due to Avascular Necrosis which was brought on by the use of Prednisone, the 2nd Hip was done in 2013, it is now 10 years post op first hip replacement, and it's great, no pain, no discomfort...recovery from surgery, although a full year went smoothly

[@stephaniekoh4212]

very detailed explanation. I am 56yrs old and considering hip replacement. What you shared on the technical side clarifies a lot of questions in my mind. Thanks doctor!

[@Cindy-by3ho]

Thank you doctor for your excellent video. I am an RN who requires a hip replacement and I watched your video to see what changes have been made with hip replacements and what to expect post-operatively.

[@charlescastillo8870]

I'm 68yrs old and had a total knee replacement in December, I have severe arthritis and now on the same side I'm having a THP done in two days. I am so ready and looking forward to a few years of less pain and no pain pills.

[@MsDiRyan]

So, Mr. C how did it go?? I am due to have my 1st hip 12/10/24 the L one end of Jan.. share please, I am curious..

[@eileenquinto3733]

Great lecture. I am a Physician Assistant (OB/GYN) & scheduled for a Hip Replacement next week. You covered so many aspects in such completeness. Thank you.

[@hoosierbaddy3052]

Eileen; hopefully you’re doing better now.

[@Edward-my9nk]

Tremendous Presentation. I had bi-lateral THP in 2014 at 54 years of age. Apparently my sockets congenetially defective (lip was malformed)--I'm a trialthetle, so although fit, over the years, my activity grinded hips to bone-on-bone--bone shaving off into soft tissue--had them done 7 weeks apart---sharp backed quickly--best to be fit when going into surgery

[@norrisorjuliepaul5668]

Having hip replacement 11/22/2022 by Dr Fillingham, looking forward to walking again without pain. This helped with all information given in original meeting. I'll let you know how everything turned out

[@MsDiRyan]

So, Do Tell, How did your hip replacement go?? I'm having mine R hip first, on Dec. 10th 2024.. I'm nervous.. 66 yrs old. other hip by end January..

[@norrisorjuliepaul5668]

Had surgery on 11/22/22 everything went excellent. Walking 2 hrs after surgery, but was on lots of pain medication the first day. 11/24 no pain when walking first time in 6 months. But lots of muscle stiffness. Thighs feel like it was hit with a baseball bat. Only taking Tylenol no narcotics for pain. Sleeping on back but no pain during night. Feeling much better then I thought, I would and looking forward to getting out and walking

[@pm6613]

You didn't walk 6 months prior to the surgery?

[@KatJ3st]

I was instructed not to use any anti-inflammatory medication 30 days post op. Ice and KZbin relaxation talks work effectively along side opioids (reduces the need of increased doses). Calm the mind, calm the body. A post op recovery nurse taught me that.

[@tommymandel]

Thanks so much. Perhaps the most informative video I've found on the subject. Thanks again.

[@zoilafuentes2300]

I am the most gratefully person to have listening regard the hip surgery all stage care. Thankfulness to the doctor.well understood .l guest since l am retired nurse.2022.

[@mikezahnow1605]

I just got home from the hospital and so far I am regretting it. The pain I hope goes away. I know the first week is probably the worst but this is awful.

[@carolschedler3832]

Hey Mike! I see you had THR about 9 months ago. I hope you have regained mobility and are largely pain free by now. While THR recovery takes a full year, it is the deep healing that is still happening. I found that as I entered the second year I gained stamina over those months. How are you doing by now?

[@mikezahnow1605]

@@carolschedler3832 Doing very well thanks for asking. I am 100% pain free. Strength seems to be coming back on its own. Pain free is so awesome!

[@carolschedler3832]

@@mikezahnow1605 Hurray!! You are in for a good surprise! First year is the physical healing. Second year is for stamina. I was surprised to feel some stamina return! Sounds like your doing great! I’m planning to do second hip in November.

[@mikezahnow1605]

@@carolschedler3832 I wish you well. I am fortunate that my other hip and knees are in good shape

[@CabanaD]

14 days out from my THR - had the other side done 4 months ago. Starting to realize what it’s like to not be in pain. Doctor spoke of pain before THR in peaks and valleys-I feel like I’ve experienced this kind of pain for decades. I’m able to sleep now, sit in the car, at a desk…I’m so excited to be able to go for a walk. Haven’t felt this good in decades and I’m saying that from my easy chair, hip packed in ice, looking forward to my 2-week follow up appointment tomorrow. All is great!

[@GinaWilson-j8k]

Most videos do not cover what to do with protrusio acetabuli cases. I am an active 41 year old athlete with EDS who can still run, do deep lunges, 20" box step ups with dumbbells etc. However, I have limited ROM (abduction and external rotation) causing discomfort in SI joint, hip, and groin. It just feels like something is "out of place" but not very painful. Sometimes, my pain and discomfort are relieved if I manually click my hip. Most people tell me not to do the surgery as it should be the last resort but I feel my biomechanics are causing other issues like with SIJ. I am considering THA so I can go back to doing all the things I love.

[@wesdavies2455]

Thankyou for the presentation, I’m 7 days post posterior left hip replacement. But I’m very different I think. At 5-6-7 yr old I was miss diagnosed for growing pains, but I had perthese disease, at 7&8 underwent 2 operations to pin my damaged and crumbled hip into place which failed, leaving me with a very deformed hip, fast forward to 37 where it degraded further leaving me very incapable, pain etc etc, 5 yrs of cortisone injections, to where on the 12-12-2019 I was told I can finally have my replacement, and then after an understandable wait due to covid, I am now 7 days after my operation 🥲🙏🏼👌🦵🏽, and this is 36 Christmas and birthday wishes come true. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

[@jasonmerlenbach7710]

I too have hip legg perthese disease. I was treated in Shriners hospital from 9 to 17. Traction,braces, crutches. We're pretty much my life as a kid. I have tried everything to not have surgery. But think I might need it at this point. I'm 50 now

[@wesdavies2455]

@@jasonmerlenbach7710 best thing I’ve ever had, wish I had had the replacement years ago

[@jasonmerlenbach7710]

@@wesdavies2455 main reason I have put it off. Is I was sick from heart disease. Heart Doctor's didn't think it was wise to have elective surgery. But I have since had a heart transplant 5 years ago. So revisited a hip surgeon. Now I have to get approval from the transplant team. I'm so limited in my movement and comfort. So hoping I can get it done safely. Glad you are doing well.

[@MsDiRyan]

so all is well now?!?! do share!

[@MsDiRyan]

@@jasonmerlenbach7710 So Jason, have you had your Hip surgery yet?

[@irwinsinger]

Small technical comment. At14:52 the speaker says that ‘10 microns is 0.1 mm.’ In fact, 10 microns is 0.01 mm.

[@nytelin274]

Yup, but the worn-out calculation is still correct with hundreds of years. That's a slip of tougue

[@KatJ3st]

Transfusion was never mentioned in my recent THR

[@alb41ful]

Excellent presentation!

[@Aviation_Professional]

Excellent presentation. Any feedback on dual mobility replacements like the Zimmerman biomet?

[@earlejames8475]

Do you insert a screw or pin to secure the cup to the pelvis?

[@steveswims2008]

I had left and right charnley hips cemented in 1985 /1986 avascaliar necrosis. I've had hip revision Feb 2023 .right hip left hip loosing needs revision soon

[@MsDiRyan]

How are you doing Steve??

[@Nick-hd2ft]

hi i am 23 and have legg calve perthes, i have slowly worseing pain in my left hip. when I was diagnose with the condition I was told I would need a hip replacement around 40-50. But I chose to get in to construction witch has put a lot of pressure on my hip. I feel I will need to get a replacement by the age of 25 but I am concerned that I won't be able to go back to work? Also what procedure would be the best for some one my age that still wants to be active?

[@magendpk8192]

Hi Nick, your Ortho Surgeon will tell the best approach depending on the actual condition of your hip based on your CT Scan or x-ray.

[@curtssallee9807]

Anterior approach...dual mobilty...dude im 49 I feel 25 sex life is not effected...bettter lol

[@eeroskylark6052]

question-is there an approach that makes long term potential for dislocation less than another, or all things equal given enough time to heal properly? I'm due for THR and want to get back to surfing, which is supremely dynamic.

[@ericaferrell4735]

Can you get a MRI with hip replacements

[@KatJ3st]

Yes no problem
