Introduction
• THA very succesful procedure• >90% patients satisfied
• Over 28.000 THA yearly in the Netherlands• Most frequently used approaches posterolateral (62%),
straight lateral (20%) en anterior (12%)
• Optimal approach remains topic of discussion • Most discussion concerning postoperative muscle strength

Comparing approaches
• Posterolateral
• Anterior

Anterior vs PosteriorAdvantages• Low dislocation risk• Minimal muscle damage• Less postoperative pain• Swift rehabilitation• Surgery in supine position
Disadvantages • Long learning curve (100pt)• Peroperative femur fractures• More blood loss• Longer duration of surgery• Different approach for revision
Advantages • Short learning curve (50pt)• Proven excellent long term
outcome• Little blood loss
Disadvantages• More muscle damage• Higher dislocation risk

PICO
• P: patients receiving THA• I: anterior approach• C: posterolateral approach• O: outcome (surgery, function, patient satisfaction,
complications)

• 448 patients undergoing unilateral primary THA
• 265 patients (age 71, 117 male) direct anterior approach
• 183 patients (age 70, 86 male) posterior approach
• No difference in age, gender, ASA grade, BMI, the side of the operation, pre-operative Oxford Hip Score (OHS) and attendance at ‘Joint school’.

• 2147 DAA THA patients were matched with PA THA based on age, gender, BMI and ASA using data from a state joint replacement registry

In 60 patients leg press and abduction strength were evaluated 2 weeks or less preoperatively, 2 and 8 days postoperatively, and at 6-week and 3-month follow-up.

Discussion• Learning curve anterior approach is longer• Comparable risk of dislocation • More peroperative blood loss and femoral fractures in
anterior approach• Longer in-hospital stay with posterolateral approach (1
day, possibly due to placebo effect)• Functional outcome (at mid- and longterm follow-up)
comparable
• Both approach are safe in experienced surgeons• Placebo effect
