Mumbai hospital: 81-year-old recovers mobility two days after hip surgery
An 81-year-old patient successfully started walking less than 48 hours following a hip replacement surgery at a hospital in Mumbai. Surgeons utilized a muscle-sparing Direct Anterior Approach (DAA) technique, which minimized discomfort and accelerated the healing process. This modern procedure enabled the woman to quickly restore her independence and resume routine tasks, such as sitting cross-legged, shortly after the operation.
