If you or someone you know is facing revision hip surgery following an infection, one of the first questions your surgeon will discuss is whether a one-stage or two-stage approach is the right option.

Both procedures aim to eliminate the infection and restore movement, but the choice depends on factors like the type of bacteria involved, the condition of the surrounding tissue, and overall health.

Mr Alazzawi recently co-authored a 2025 study in Orthopedic Reviews examining long-term outcomes across both approaches – and his latest article explains what this and other emerging research means for patients.

If you've had a hip or knee replacement and something doesn't feel right – increasing pain, swelling, or warmth around the joint – it's worth knowing what the next steps could look like.

A periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is a rare complication after joint replacement surgery. Diagnosing it accurately involves more than one test: looking at blood markers, joint fluid analysis, and clinical findings together to build a full picture. Diagnostic guidelines were also updated in 2025, meaning today's assessments are more accurate than ever.

Mr Alazzawi specialises in revision surgery for infection-related complications and leads a highly experienced team managing some of the most complex cases in the region.

If you have been told you need revision knee surgery, you may be wondering what recovery will look like and how long it will take.

Recovery from revision knee replacement takes longer than it did after your original procedure. But for most patients, it leads to real and lasting improvement in pain and quality of life, particularly when treated by a specialist with experience in complex revision.

Mr Sulaiman Alazzawi has written a new FAQ covering what early recovery involves, how physiotherapy supports the healing process, and what outcomes patients can realistically expect over the first 12 months.

In a new FAQ, we explain what revision hip replacement surgery actually involves, why it is more complex than the original procedure, and how modern techniques such as custom implants and targeted local antibiotic therapy are improving results for patients with even the most challenging cases.

From arriving at hospital and meeting your anaesthetist, to the procedure itself and taking your first steps afterwards, every stage is carefully planned to keep you comfortable and supported.

Our new FAQ walks you through what to expect from start to finish, including how modern techniques like the Direct Anterior Approach and Mako robotic surgery can make a difference to your experience on the day and in the days that follow.

Not everyone with knee arthritis needs a total knee replacement.
If damage is limited to just one area of the knee, a partial replacement could be a highly effective option. It offers faster recovery, a more natural-feeling joint, and similar long-term outcomes to total replacement for the right patient.

Our new FAQ article explains the key differences, who is suitable for each procedure, and how robotic technology is improving results for both.
