Summary: | Worldwide, the Direct Anterior Approach (DA) for Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA) has been gaining popularity. In the past years, there has been increasing interest in this approach given its early recovery rates. Advocates for this technique claim that its intermuscular and internervous nature offer patients a better and more anatomical management of soft tissues leading to better functional results and less pain. This review exhibits the anatomic and surgical considerations of the procedures as well as its main advantages and potential complications. |
