A less invasive form of hip replacement called the Proxima hip was introduced for the first time in Chennai, Tamil nadu by Indian orthopedic surgeon Dr.A.K.Venkatachalam last week.
This is an uncemented hip anchored in the upper part of the thigh bone and has a chance of lasting longer than standard hips.
