Abstract:
Many surgical approaches to hip have evolved over the period of time surgical approaches differs chiefly in position of patient in supine or lateral and whether the hip is dislocated anteriorly or posteriorly. The choice of surgical approaches is largely depending on personal preference and training. Arthroplasty surgeons remained discordant in their choice between two approaches.
In this study we try to evaluate the clinical, radiological and functional outcome of hemi-replacement and total hip replacement operated by anterolateral approach.
No postoperative Disloaction was found high in patients operated by posterior approach. Peri prosthetic fractures were seen in 2 cases operated by anterolateral approach. Post-operative lurch was found significant with anterolateral approach.no significant increase was seen in intra-op blood loss, duration of surgery.
