Revision Hip Replacement is a rather complicated operation that is conducted in case of failure, loosening, wear or some other complications of the earlier hip replacement, like infection, instability or dislocation. The old implant is then removed thoroughly and replaced by a new and more stable one, which would be long-term stable and comfortable.
Since it is a surgery to repair a previous surgery, revision hip replacement is a procedure that requires expert surgical abilities, an accurate choice of implants, and modern reconstruction methodologies to bring back the full functioning of the hip and bone support. Such surgery can alleviate pain, enhance mobility and remarkably increase the quality of life of patients having failed hip implants.

Yes, modern revision implants are designed to be stronger and longer-lasting, often providing excellent durability for 20 years or more.
