Knee or hip replacement in China
This is not a diagnosis. It only helps you find relevant information.
What China offers
Hip and knee replacement is widely performed in China. National volume-based procurement from 2022 cut average implant prices from about 35,000 to 7,000 yuan (hip) and 32,000 to 5,000 yuan (knee). These are implant prices, not total surgery cost. Foreigners usually self-pay through international departments.
15 clinical trials are recruiting at sites in China (ClinicalTrials.gov, 2026-10-26). See the trials
