Early Clinical and Radiographic Results of Minimally Invasive Anterior Approach Hip Arthroplasty

Abstract: We present a retrospective review of the early results and complications in a series of 35 consecutive patients with 43 total hip arthroplasties performed through an anterior muscle sparing minimally invasive approach. We found the early complication rates and radiographic outcomes comparable to those reported from arthroplasties performed via traditional approaches. Complications included dislocation (2%), femur fracture (2%), greater trochanteric fracture (12%), postoperative periprosthetic intertrochanteric… Show more

“…There is some evidence that the risk of intraoperative periprosthetic fracture is elevated with MIS approaches for elective THA. [80,81] However, the present study demonstrated an incidence of 1.4%, which is lower than the 2.95-10.6% reported in other large series. [82][83][84][85] The three intraoperative fractures in the present series were all treated successfully using cerclage cables inserted through a smaller secondary incision without compromising the short external rotators.…”

“…Intraoperative periprosthetic fracture with press-fit implants is an inherent risk when operating on patients with a fragility fracture. There is some evidence that this risk may be elevated with MIS approaches for elective THA [40] , [41] as well as for femoral neck fractures [29] , [42] , [43] , [46] . In our series, there are 4 of 37 cases (10.1%) with intraoperative nondisplaced calcar fracture managed successfully with cerclage cabling.…”
