Welcome to Valiant Clinic & Hospital, our orthopedic surgeon, Dr. Paul Jairaj, discusses different approaches to hip surgery – anterior, anterior lateral, and posterior – providing an in-depth comparison and sharing his personal choice.
Over 50% of surgeons opt for the anterior lateral approach, but this often involves detaching and reattaching the gluteal muscles, leading to potential muscle weakness. This has given rise to the popularity of the posterior approach, where the small rotator muscles are cut but then reattached. Recently, the anterior approach has also been gaining favor, although it requires a special table, extra assistance, and a longer surgery duration.
Our surgeon highlights why he personally prefers the posterior approach, emphasizing the importance of surgeons being comfortable and adept with their chosen method. However, he underscores that what matters more than the approach is the accurate placement of the implant.
At Valiant Clinic & Hospital, we utilize cutting-edge 3D planning software to ensure the utmost precision in our surgical procedures. Tune in to understand the intricacies of these hip surgery approaches and learn more about our commitment to patient care and advanced technology.
