Robotic Hip Replacement

A hip that feels like it belongs to you.

Robotic-assisted total hip replacement combines 3D pre-operative planning with intra-operative precision — restoring leg length, hip biomechanics and long-term mobility with confidence.

A hip that feels like it belongs to you.

A modern approach to hip replacement

Hip replacement is one of the most successful operations in modern medicine — but success depends heavily on the precision of cup positioning, offset restoration and leg length. Robotic assistance elevates each of these factors, giving patients a hip that moves and feels natural.

Dr. Tomar uses robotic navigation to plan each hip in three dimensions before the operation, then verify the plan in real time during surgery. Small changes of just a few degrees can transform long-term implant behaviour — this is where robotics matters most.

Why robotic

The precision advantage

Accurate cup positioning

Robotic guidance places the acetabular cup within the ideal safe zone every time.

Restored leg length

Real-time measurement prevents post-op leg length discrepancy.

Rapid return to walking

Minimally invasive approach lets most patients walk the same day.

Reduced dislocation risk

Optimised orientation lowers post-operative dislocation risk substantially.

Preserved muscle & tissue

Tissue-sparing exposure protects gluteal muscles for better strength recovery.

Long implant lifespan

Correct orientation minimises wear, extending implant survival beyond 20 years.

Recovery journey

Your hip recovery timeline

Hip replacement recovery is often faster than patients expect. Here's the typical journey after robotic total hip replacement.

  1. 1
    Day 0
    Surgery & first steps

    Procedure takes about 60–90 minutes. Most patients stand and take assisted steps on the same evening.

  2. 2
    Day 1–3
    Hospital stay

    Walking with a walker, learning safe hip positions, pain well controlled. Discharge usually on day 2 or 3.

  3. 3
    Week 1–2
    Home recovery

    Short walks around the house, chair-and-toilet raisers for safety, home physiotherapy. Sutures removed by day 12.

  4. 4
    Week 3–6
    Back to routine

    Walking outdoors, stairs unaided, driving resumed around week 4–6. Most desk work possible from week 2–3.

  5. 5
    Week 6–12
    Building strength

    Long walks, gentle cycling, swimming, travel. Full weight-bearing and near-normal function.

  6. 6
    3–6 months
    Complete return

    Golf, doubles tennis, hiking and dancing become comfortable again. The hip 'disappears' from daily awareness.

Hip replacement — what patients get wrong

A lot of what patients hear about joint surgery is outdated. Here's the reality.

Myth
I'll walk with a permanent limp.
Fact
A well-planned hip replacement — especially with robotic guidance — restores leg length and offset accurately, so limping usually resolves within a few weeks.
Myth
I'll have to sleep only on my back forever.
Fact
Modern surgical approaches and precise cup positioning let most patients sleep on either side comfortably within 4–6 weeks.
Myth
It's a huge, bloody surgery.
Fact
Robotic-assisted hip replacement is a controlled 60–90 minute procedure with small incisions, minimal muscle disruption and modest blood loss — often no transfusion needed.
Myth
AVN patients just need painkillers, not surgery.
Fact
Untreated avascular necrosis progressively destroys the femoral head. Early hip replacement gives dramatically better long-term function than waiting for late-stage collapse.
Myth
The implant will wear out in 10 years.
Fact
Ceramic-on-polyethylene and ceramic-on-ceramic bearings, correctly aligned, are engineered for 25–30 years of use.

When to get your hip evaluated

Joint pain is common — but some signs mean it's time to stop self-managing and get expert evaluation.

  • Groin pain that radiates to the thigh or knee
  • Stiffness putting on socks, shoes or sitting cross-legged
  • A limp that has appeared or worsened over months
  • Night pain or pain lying on the affected side
  • A history of steroid use, alcohol, or hip trauma (AVN risk)
  • Reduced walking distance despite physiotherapy and medication

Patient stories

Robotic Hip — patient stories

Real experiences from people who chose Dr. L. Tomar for their joint care.

The robotic planning restored my leg length exactly. No limp, no lift in the shoe — and back to golf in four months.
Prakash D.
Robotic Hip Replacement · Delhi NCR
AVN had collapsed my femoral head at 42. Dr. Tomar's precise cup positioning gave me a hip that feels like my own. Discharged in two days.
Anjali K.

Small incision, minimal blood loss, no transfusion. I was climbing stairs on day three. The technology genuinely made a difference.
