Loosened hip replacement,X-ray
Loosened hip replacement. Coloured X-ray of a man's hip showing a prosthetic hip implant (black) in a loosened ball joint. The implant is embedded in the femur (thigh bone,lower centre) & replaces the head of the femur. Its articulation (joint) is with the pelvis (upper left) where it forms a ball-and-socket joint. Here an artificial socket (pink) has been fitted into the old pelvic socket,but it has loosened and become displaced,leaving a dark space. The cement holding it in place has failed,requiring surgical correction. A hip prosthesis mimics the old ball-and-socket joint,which is often replaced due to arthritis or severe injury,to restore the mobility that was lost
