Hip Pain

At the University of Maryland Medical Center (UMMC), our orthopedic surgeons treat a wide range of disorders — ranging from birth defects to injuries to arthritis — that cause hip pain in people of all ages

Hip Pain Treatments

Patients considering hip replacement or other treatments for hip pain benefit from the extensive experience of our specialized hip team.

UMMC physicians were among the first in the nation to regularly perform the less-invasive anterior hip replacement.

However, hip replacement is only one treatment. Our specialists carefully weigh the patient's diagnosis, pain level, needs and overall health to determine the right hip treatment. These could include:

• Hip replacement
• Minimally invasive arthroscopy
• Hip osteotomy

Common Hip Problems in Adults:

• Hip arthritis
• Labral tears
• Avascular necrosis

Hip Conditions in Children:

• Congenital hip dysplasia
• Perthes disease
• Slipped capital femoral epiphysis
