Anterior Approach
Total Hip Joint Replacement
The anterior approach is a technique of performing a hip replacement through the front of the hip.
Because it does not involve cutting muscles or tendons, there are advantages such as experiencing less pain and quicker recovery after surgery compared with the more commonly used approaches.
While early recovery is important, the goal
of joint replacement surgery is achieving good long-term outcomes. Outcomes at the one year mark are comparable between the different approaches.
