Abstract

This article describes the surgical technique for total hip arthroplasty using the single-incision direct anterior approach. The authors believe the direct anterior approach has significant advantages, including minimal soft tissue trauma, resulting in faster postoperative mobilization and rehabilitation. The small incision scar also results in better cosmesis.
