    Summary

    The anterior approach for total hip replacement (THE) offers rapid surgery and precise component placement. This technique leads to faster recovery and fewer complications for most patients.

    Area of Science:

    • Orthopedic Surgery
    • Biomedical Engineering

    Context:

    • The anterior approach for total hip endoprosthetics (THE) is a surgical technique.
    • This method has been utilized in approximately 3,000 patients.
    • It facilitates anatomical joint inspection and accurate acetabular component orientation.

    Purpose:

    • To evaluate the efficacy and outcomes of a modified anterior approach for total hip endoprosthetics.
    • To assess the operative time, complication rates, and patient recovery associated with this surgical method.

    Summary:

    • The anterior approach allows for efficient femur exposure and atraumatic soft tissue handling.
    • Modified for noncemented THE, the average operative time is under 90 minutes.
    • This technique results in early mobilization, reduced inpatient stay (7.3 days), and a favorable complication profile compared to literature.

    Impact:

    • The anterior approach is associated with reduced operative time and improved patient rehabilitation.
    • It demonstrates a low incidence of complications, potentially lower than other reported methods for primary and revision THE.
    • This surgical method is considered optimal for the majority of patients undergoing total hip endoprosthetics.
