“…Cognitively impaired patients treated with hemiarthroplasty had an increased risk of prosthesis dislocation, especially when the posterior approach had been used. Our results concur with those in the study by Svenøy et al (2017), who reported an 8-fold increase in risk of dislocation after the posterior approach compared with the lateral. Our results suggest that the use of the posterior approach in cognitively impaired patients should be avoided.…”

“…The skewed distribution in surgical approaches and fixation techniques is difficult to correct for because there was no randomization of the patients to one of the two approaches. Accordingly, if the posterior group had been larger there might have been a greater risk of dislocation and an increased reoperation rate in that group, as reported in several other studies (90,92,184). The phrase "seems like a safe procedure" in our conclusion could probably have been toned down.…”

“…Rogmark and Leonardsson published a review of RCTs and register studies reporting an increased risk of dislocation with PA, and given the seriousness of dislocations they suggest that DLA is preferable (89). A recent review article by Fulham (2019) on DLA versus PA described observational studies (85,(90)(91)(92) recommending the DLA based on higher risk of posterior dislocation, but concluded that the evidence is limited and that the topic needs further investigation (93 probably less used due to its learning curve and surgeons' choice (106).…”

“…Postoperative dislocation is uncommon but one of the most devastating and disconcerting complications after FHP by posterior approach [7]. Several studies have shown that suturing the soft tissues is one of the most challenging techniques because of high risks of soft-tissue tear.…”
