Is Direct Anterior Hip Replacement Right for you?
If you have hip pain or discomfort performing daily activities, or if you have been diagnosed with osteoarthritis, direct anterior approach hip replacement may be a procedure that positively improves the quality of your life.
Since it is minimally invasive, anterior hip surgery is an alternative to traditional posterior hip replacement and results in less pain and a quicker recovery time.
Minimal Recovery Time
The hip joint is accessed between anterior muscles, meaning that muscles and tendons are not cut or detached. The hip replacement implant is then placed with the guidance of intra-operative X-rays to ensure proper implant positioning.
Because this approach leads to faster healing times, you may not need to be hospitalized for as long as you would following traditional hip replacement. Patients can typically walk several hours following surgery and either return home the same day or stay overnight for recovery. Three months following surgery may result in full recovery.
