Abstract

Introduction: Total hip arthroplasty is the definitive treatment for osteoarthritis and intracapsular fractures of the hip in patients over 65 years of age. In recent years, direct anterior approach (DAA), also known as minimally invasive anterolateral approach (MIAA), has been reintroduced as an alternative to conventional procedures. However, there are few studies describing the outcomes of its application.

Objective: To describe the clinical and transoperative results and outcomes in patients who underwent total hip replacement using DAA.

Methodology: Retrospective cohort study conducted in 36 patients with osteoarthritis or intracapsular fractures of the hip who underwent hip arthroplasty using DDA in a tertiary care hospital in Bogotá D.C. between 2017 and 2020 and were followed up for at least 6 months.

Results: The mean age was 68.8 years (SD: 15.1), 58% of the participants were women. Primary osteoarthrosis was the main reason for indicating surgery (47.2%). In addition, the average hospital stay was 3 days (SD: 1.62), the median bleeding was 200cc (IQR: 200-300), and two intraoperative femur fractures occurred. Finally, there were no cases of postoperative prosthesis dislocation and all patients recovered functionality.

Conclusion: DAA demonstrated outstanding effectiveness for the functional recovery of patients, decreased operative time, and a low incidence of complications.
