Both bipolar hip replacement and total hip replacement (THR) are surgical procedures designed to address hip joint issues, but they differ in purpose, design, and scope. Bipolar Hip Replacement: A type of partial hip replacement where the femoral head is replaced with a two-piece prosthetic system. The acetabulum (hip socket) is left intact.

It is used for advanced arthritis, avascular necrosis, or other chronic conditions causing joint damage.
