Minimally invasive total hip replacement (MIS THA) shows significantly less blood loss than standard THA, with no significant differences in procedure duration or complications. Functional outcomes were only marginally improved with MIS THA.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Biomechanics
  • Surgical Innovation

Background:

  • Total hip replacement (THA) is a common procedure for hip joint dysfunction.
  • Minimally invasive surgical (MIS) techniques aim to reduce tissue trauma and improve patient outcomes.
  • Comparison between MIS THA and standard incision THA is crucial for surgical decision-making.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To systematically review randomized controlled trials comparing minimally invasive total hip arthroplasty (MIS THA) with standard incision techniques.
  • To evaluate differences in procedure duration, blood loss, complications, and functional outcomes (Harris Hip Score).

Main Methods:

  • Systematic review of randomized controlled trials identified through comprehensive database searches (Medline, CINAHL, EMBASE, Cochrane).

  • Data extraction focused on procedure duration, blood loss, complications, and Harris Hip Score (HHS).
  • Pooled analysis using a random effects model to determine weighted mean differences and odds ratios.

    • Main Results:

    • Eight studies involving 917 patients (481 MIS THA, 436 standard THA) were included.
    • Significantly less blood loss was observed in the MIS THA group (p < 0.001).
    • No significant differences were found in procedure duration (p = 0.21) or complication rates (p = 0.71).
    • Marginal, borderline significant improvement in Harris Hip Score for MIS THA (p = 0.06).

    Conclusions:

    • Minimally invasive total hip replacement offers comparable outcomes to standard THA regarding duration and complications.
    • MIS THA demonstrates a trend towards better functional recovery, though not statistically significant in this review.
    • The primary advantage of MIS THA appears to be cosmetic, with functional differences being marginal.
