Direct anterior approach complications for total hip arthroplasty
Abstract: The direct anterior approach (DAA) for total hip arthroplasty has been popularized in the last decade as a minimally invasive approach used by many surgeons, including the authors, to preserve the integrity of muscle groups and their insertions and the dynamic hip stability resulting in less surgical trauma and faster recovery process with decreased postoperative pain. This surgical approach is not without a variety of complications and pitfalls. This review aims to identify any potential drawbacks and challenges associated with the DAA in THA and guide surgeons on minimizing and avoiding them.
