Revision Hip Replacement Cost in India

The cost of Revision Hip Replacement in India typically ranges from $4,000 to $7,500 USD, depending on the hospital, city, and type of procedure.

Revision hip replacement replaces a failed hip replacement. The cost depends on:

• Reason: loosening, infection, dislocation or wear.
• One or two stages: two stages for infection.
• Implants and bone grafts: specialised components.
• Hospital stay and transfusion

Complex or two-stage revisions may cost more than this range. Ask what is included.

West Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust explains revision is usually needed for loosening or infection. Delay can make bone damage harder to repair. The surgery is larger and more complex than a first replacement, and bone may need rebuilding.

For infection, the first stage removes the implant, followed by antibiotics. The second stage fits a new hip, usually 6 weeks to about 6 months later.

West Suffolk reports that more than a third have a complication, mostly minor. Dislocation affects about 5%, infection about 2%, and about half need a transfusion. Hip precautions apply for 6 to 8 weeks, and crutches may be needed for up to 3 months.
