Hip joint problems can significantly affect mobility, independence, and quality of life. Persistent pain, stiffness, and limited movement often interfere with daily activities. When medications and physiotherapy fail to relieve symptoms, surgical intervention becomes necessary. Minimally invasive hip surgery in Betul offers patients a modern approach to hip replacement with smaller incisions, reduced tissue damage, and faster recovery. At Varunam Super Speciality Hospital, patients receive expert surgical care under Dr. Utsav Agrawal, ensuring safe procedures and optimal long-term results.
Minimally invasive hip surgery focuses on reducing incision size and minimizing soft tissue disruption. By preserving muscles and ligaments around the joint, patients experience less pain and quicker mobility post-surgery. These techniques also reduce blood loss and lower the risk of complications.
At Varunam Super Speciality Hospital, Dr. Utsav Agrawal carefully plans each procedure using detailed imaging and preoperative assessments. Consequently, surgeries are tailored to the patient’s anatomy, ensuring accurate implant placement and long-lasting joint function.
Several hip conditions benefit from minimally invasive surgery, including:
- Advanced osteoarthritis causing joint pain and stiffness
- Avascular necrosis (AVN) of the hip
- Hip fractures affecting mobility and stability
- Post-traumatic hip deformities or failed previous surgeries
Timely surgical intervention improves mobility, reduces pain, and restores the patient’s confidence in daily activities.
Minimally invasive procedures offer multiple benefits compared to conventional surgery:
- Smaller incisions, leading to reduced scarring
- Less post-operative pain and faster healing
- Shorter hospital stays and early mobilisation
- Improved accuracy in implant placement
These advantages allow patients to resume their daily routines sooner while ensuring long-term joint health.
The process begins with thorough preoperative evaluation, including X-rays, MRI scans, and blood tests. Using advanced planning tools, Dr. Utsav Agrawal designs a precise surgical plan tailored to the patient’s condition. During surgery, specialized instruments and techniques are used to minimise tissue disruption.
Post-operative care begins immediately, focusing on pain management and guided movement. Therefore, patients experience a smooth surgical journey and faster return to normal activities.
Varunam Super Speciality Hospital provides world-class infrastructure for advanced hip surgery:

- Advanced imaging systems for accurate diagnosis and planning
- High-quality implants and precision surgical instruments

- Improving balance and posture
- Gradually resuming daily activities
