Hip Arthritis
Hip Osteoarthritis has a lifetime-estimated risk of 25% in people who live to age 85 and a 10% risk of hip replacement. In addition, greater trochanteric pain syndrome describes a source of trochanteric pain derived from pathology of the trochanteric bursae, gluteus medius and minimum tendons and iliotibial band with an annual incidence of 1.8 per 1000 adults.
Traditionally, treatment is based in pain management with surgery in end-stage disease for both Hip Osteoarthritis and Great Trochanteric Pain Syndrome. We specialize in transcatheter embolization, which has emerged as an alternative in reduction in pain in patients with Hip Osteoarthritis and Great Trochanteric Pain Syndrome.
The procedure is done under sedation via a small catheter, which is placed through your skin. The catheter is then advanced into the Lateral Femoral Circumflex Artery and small particles are injected into the artery to embolize it. The embolization procedure takes approximately 30-60 minutes to complete. There are no stitches and minimal restrictions post procedure. The recovery time is a fraction of that of traditional surgery or joint replacement. Best of all, you can expect to dramatically reduce the amount of pain medication use and increase you daily activity.
