Anterior Approach

The anterior approach is a surgical method used for hip replacement, where the surgeon accesses the hip joint from the front of the body. This technique allows the surgeon to avoid cutting through muscles that stabilize the hip, which can lead to less pain and faster recovery. Because the incision is made on the front, patients often experience less muscle damage, reduced risk of dislocation, and a quicker return to everyday activities. It’s a precise and minimally invasive approach that aims to improve outcomes and comfort during the healing process.
