Hip Replacement
This stock medical exhibit features illustrations depicting a right hip fracture and steps from the hip replacement procedure. The first image features an anterior skeletal view of the patient's pre-operative condition and highlights the necrosis of the femoral head. A series of four images then illustrate steps from the operative procedure and include the incision, the reduction and the insertion of the prosthetic pieces. The final image shows an anterior skeletal view of the patient's post-operative condition with the replacement components in place.
