ANTERIOR HIP REPLACEMENTS

After non-surgical treatments for arthritis have been exhausted, hip replacements can be very beneficial to ease pain
3.
ANTERIOR VS. POSTERIOR
Posterior hip replacements have been prevalent throughout the history of joint replacements, but they often result in unsatisfactory joint function.
Within the last 10 years, the number of surgeons using the anterior approach has increased to nearly 20%.
The anterior hip replacement is a relatively new procedure, but has already shown great results
4.
THE PROCEDURE
Using the anterior approach, the surgeon will cut through the front of the pelvis instead of the gluteal muscles to reach the affected hip.
The risk of dislocation is greatly reduced because the surgeon can avoid cutting through major muscle groups

THE TABLE
A special table is used so optimal placement can be ensured with a C-arm fluoroscope
The HANA table allows for hyperextension and external rotation during a hip replacement.
Because of this improved access, the surgeon can operate with less tissue damage and a smaller incision, resulting in a shorter hospital stay.
6.
RECOVERY
The recovery is much faster than the posterior hip replacement
The patient can return to normal daily activities much faster and with fewer restrictions
Patients can live a much more normal life- many people say they can forget they ever had surgery
7.
Studies show that after 20 years, 90% of joint replacements are still functioning well. A joint replacement can give the patient years of pain-free function that their original joint could not provide.
