A hip disarticulation prosthesis is a type of artificial limb designed for individuals who have undergone a hip disarticulation amputation. Hip disarticulation is a surgical procedure in which the entire leg is amputated at the hip joint. This type of amputation is typically performed due to severe trauma, congenital anomalies, tumors, or other medical conditions that make it necessary to remove the entire lower limb.

Socket: The socket is the part of the prosthesis that fits directly against the residual limb (the amputated area). It is custom-made to provide a comfortable and secure fit while distributing weight evenly and accommodating any unique shape or contours of the residual limb.
Prosthetic Knee: In some hip disarticulation prostheses, a prosthetic knee joint may be included. The type of knee joint used can vary depending on the individual’s activity level and specific needs.
Prosthetic Foot: The prosthetic foot is the lowermost part of the prosthesis and comes in various designs to suit different activities and lifestyles. There are options for everyday walking, running, sports, and other specialized activities.
Suspension System: The suspension system is essential for keeping the prosthesis securely attached to the residual limb. Different suspension methods, such as belts, straps, or vacuum systems, may be used to ensure stability and comfort.
Pylon: The pylon is the connecting rod between the socket and the foot. It provides support and helps transmit forces during walking and other activities.
Adapters and Accessories: Depending on the individual’s specific needs and preferences, various adapters and accessories may be added to the prosthesis to enhance functionality and comfort.
Designing and fitting a hip disarticulation prosthesis is a complex process that involves collaboration between a skilled prosthetist and the amputee. The prosthetist evaluates the individual’s unique requirements, level of mobility, activity level, and overall health to design and create a custom prosthesis that best meets their needs.
It’s important to note that the success of a hip disarticulation prosthesis depends on the individual’s commitment to rehabilitation and adapting to the use of the prosthesis. With proper training, physical therapy, and practice, many individuals can regain significant mobility and independence with their prosthetic limb.
At Ortho Innovations L.L.C., we specialize in designing and fitting advanced prosthetic solutions for individuals who have undergone complex amputations. Our hip disarticulation prosthesis is tailored to provide exceptional stability, comfort, and functional mobility. Unlike standard prosthetics, a hip disarticulation prosthesis must replace the hip joint, thigh, knee, and foot, requiring a high level of precision and innovation to ensure smooth movement and natural gait patterns.
We think every hip replacement should be as unique as the person wearing it. So, instead of cookie-cutter designs, we create systems made just for you. We consider your body, lifestyle, and what you want to achieve. For those requiring a Hip Disarticulation Prosthesis, we design with special attention to providing a secure and stable fit, without putting pressure where it hurts. Our designs include advanced knees and feet – some that save energy, others controlled by computers – that help you move without struggling, even on tough ground.
What sets us apart is that we really care about comfort. We use lightweight materials like carbon fiber and titanium to make the Hip Disarticulation Prosthesis strong yet comfortable to wear all day. Our sockets are designed to prevent rubbing and discomfort, and we can create the outside to look so realistic that it blends seamlessly. Whether you’re walking, climbing stairs, or just having fun, our replacement is there to give you confidence every step of the way.
We feel that great movement shouldn’t cost too much. Our hip replacements combine new technology with smart design, so you get the best quality without breaking the bank. We utilize technologies like 3D scanning to reduce waste and expedite production. That’s how we keep prices down and still deliver a top-notch, custom fit.
