Abstract: Background and Aim: Total hip arthroplasty is one of the most effective orthopedic procedures, adoption of minimally invasive approaches aims to enhance functional outcome and decrease the burden of patient’s recovery.
Aim of the study: Is to explain the surgical approach and to demonstrate the results that were attained and the complications that occurred.
Methods: 30 hips were included in this study; they underwent a n anterior approach for hip replacement. Complications, surgical factors, and patient characteristics were all noted and assessed. Harris hip score was employed to assess the clinical results.
Results: The mean clinical score was 96 points at 1 year follow-up compared to pre-operative score of 54. One patient had a revision while other complications were clinically insignificant. With carefully chosen patients, the direct anterior interval for hip replacement is a viable procedure that produces positive results.
