Educational & Training Video Using Artificial Bone
Cemented Bipolar Hemiarthroplasty is a surgical procedure used to replace the damaged head of the femur with an artificial joint. It is commonly performed for femoral neck fractures in the hip, particularly in elderly or active patients who require enhanced mobility.

How It Works
The artificial joint consists of two bearings, allowing the head to swivel during movement, promoting natural motion and stability.
Cemented fixation ensures secure and immediate stability, reducing the risk of implant loosening.
The bipolar head design increases intra-articular mobility, minimizing excessive movement between the prosthesis and acetabular cartilage, thereby reducing wear and preserving the native acetabulum.

Who It's For
This procedure is best suited for patients who:
✔ Are independently mobile outdoors
✔ Require minimal support (one stick or less)
✔ Are cognitively sound to follow post-surgical rehabilitation
✔ Are medically fit for surgical intervention

Key Benefits of Cemented Bipolar Hemiarthroplasty
✅ Reduced risk of residual pain compared to uncemented options
✅ Better functional outcomes, allowing improved post-surgical mobility
✅ Less postoperative mid-thigh pain due to optimal load distribution
✅ Potentially lower long-term revision rate, as loosening is minimized

Considerations
The debate between cemented vs. uncemented hemiarthroplasty remains ongoing.

Some studies suggest uncemented implants offer similar clinical outcomes as cemented ones.

Patient-specific factors, such as bone quality and mobility levels, determine the best choice.
