Dr. S. Muthukumar, Chairman & Chief Orthopedic Surgeon, Parvathy Hospital, said, "Patients need not be concerned for undergoing a hip replacement at their old age, especially at an age above 90. With support of new techniques and therapy, the age factor diminished to be the rule for performing such surgeries. There has been a rise in hip replacement numbers on aged population, but it is important to review the post-surgical success based on hospital stay, complications after surgery and readmission to the hospital. But a better committed lifestyle would lower the risk and complication."

Dr. Mithun, Hip Replacement Surgeon, Parvathy Hospital, said, "It is necessary to avoid confusion in coming up for hip replacement surgeries. The high end techniques, therapies, and with best facilities available here for orthopedic surgeries ensure patients for a faster recovery and rehabilitation. Over years, we have proven records of successfully treating geriatric patients, offering total orthopedic solutions which enabled them to function independently, live a happier and confident life."
