Kamal Aderibigbe, MD, is a board-certified orthopedic surgeon with a passion for restoring patients' form and function through fracture care and joint replacement surgery. With locations in Des Moines and Ankeny, Iowa, Dr. Aderibigbe specializes in hip replacement and trauma surgery. Born in Nigeria, Dr. Aderibigbe grew up in Atlanta, Georgia.
Hip resurfacing is a surgical procedure used to treat hip arthritis. Unlike a total hip replacement, it preserves more of the patient's natural bone. The damaged surface of the hip joint is reshaped and capped with a smooth metal covering, reducing pain and improving joint function.
A direct anterior hip replacement is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that replaces a damaged hip joint with a metal, ceramic, or plastic prosthesis through a small minimally invasive incision on the front of the hip. This approach allows Dr. Aderibigbe to remove the damaged or diseased joint and cartilage without disrupting the surrounding healthy muscles and tendons.
