The musculoskeletal system which comprises of different muscles, bones, and ligaments give support, stability, shape, and movement to the human body. The total number of bones in the skeletal system are 270 at birth and gradually reduce in number to 206 at adulthood due to fusion of few bones. Hip joint is amongst the largest of the weight-bearing joints after the knee and also one of the strongest joints. Usually, the average male femur is about 480mm in length with a diameter of 23.4mm. The hip joint is a classic example of a ball and socket joint where the head of the femur articulates in the acetabulum of the pelvis. The head of the femur and acetabulum are covered by a 63.5mm thick shiny white hyaline which acts as a smooth cushion to the joint. This joint has synovial fluid articulated in the mating surface which allows the joint to flex under different pressures without causing wear and tear. The synovial fluid and the hyaline help the bones move each other at different degrees of freedom without causing pain to the human. Usually, hip problems are associated with aged people due to worn-out hip joints. However, hip joint disorders can be associated with any person irrespective of age without proper care. Hip replacement surgery is considered to be amongst the greatest advances in health care of the twentieth century. In 1925 the first replacement made out of glass was used for the surgery by an American surgeon Marius Smith-Petersen. An American surgeon named Dr. Austin T. Moore at the Columbia Hospital, South Carolina performed the first metallic hip replacement surgery on September 28, 1940. Later, Sir John Charnley, who is considered the father of modern total hip arthroplasty, modeled a low friction arthroplasty in the early 1960s. This design was identical, in principle, to the prosthesis used in the present day. It consisted of a stem and head of the femur and an acetabular cup with a backing cup.
