The partial hip replacement usually takes about 45-60 minutes.
Good luck with your operation.
I am not sure what you are referring to as far as partial hip surgery. I am guessing you are referring to Replacement of the femoral head (round part). If so you will see improvement for 3-6 months and at times even longer depending on Pre Operative condition. Hope this helps. Good luck.
