The minimally invasive joint replacement surgery of the hip (ALMIS), is a modern concept for the treatment of osteoarthritis of the joint. This method enables the orthopedic surgeon to complete the surgery without cut muscle groups that surround the joint, but to distinguish between them and will reach the bones which will replace the hip.

There are no absolute age or weight restrictions for total hip replacements.

Recommendations for surgery are based on a patient's pain and disability, not age. Most patients who undergo total hip replacement are age 50 to 80, but orthopaedic surgeons evaluate patients individually. Total hip replacements have been performed successfully at all ages, from the young teenager with juvenile arthritis to the elderly patient with degenerative arthritis.
When Surgery Is RecommendedThere are several reasons why your doctor may recommend hip replacement surgery. People who benefit from hip replacement surgery often have:

• Hip pain that limits everyday activities, such as walking or bending
• Hip pain that continues while resting, either day or night
• Stiffness in a hip that limits the ability to move or lift the leg
• Inadequate pain relief from anti-inflammatory drugs, physical therapy, or walking supports
• see more for ALMIS

• less postoperative pain
• smaller incision
• immediate mobilization of the patient
• usually does not require a blood transfusion
• shorter duration of hospitalization in clinical
• minimize the total postoperative day the patient needs the use of walking aids (walker, crutches)
• faster return to daily activities and professional
• The surgical method applied in recent years to major hip surgery centers worldwide are increasingly replacing the hitherto conventional methods.
