Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Minimally Invasive Procedures
  • Hip Reconstruction

Background:

  • The standard posterior-lateral hip approach is well-established.
  • Minimally invasive techniques have evolved from the standard approach.
  • Micro-posterior approaches aim to provide surgical flexibility.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To detail experiences with a family of micro-posterior hip approaches.
  • To explore the application of these approaches in complex hip reconstructions.
  • To present the Supercapsular Percutaneously-Assisted Total Hip (SuperPATH) approach.

Main Methods:

  • Utilizing a continuum of micro-posterior approaches.
  • Applying the Percutaneously-Assisted Total Hip (PATH) and Supercapsular (SuperCap) techniques.
