The aim of the present study was to evaluate femoral and acetabular component positioning in primary cementless THA comparing a lateral to a MIS anterolateral approach. Methods: We evaluated 6 week postoperative radiographs of 52 hips with a minimal invasive anterolateral approach compared to 54 hips with a standard lateral approach. All hips had received the same type of implant for primary cementless unilateral THA and had a healthy hip contralaterally. Results: Hip offset was equally restored comparing both approaches. No influence of the approach was observed with regard to reconstruction of acetabular offset, femoral offset, vertical placement of the center of rotation, stem alignment and leg length discrepancy. However, with the MIS approach, a significantly higher percentage of cups (38.5 %) was malpositioned compared to the standard approach (16.7 %) (p = 0.022). Conclusions: The MIS anterolateral approach allows for comparable reconstruction of stem position, offset and center of rotation compared to the lateral approach. However, surgeons must be aware of a higher risk of cup malpositioning for inclination and anteversion using the MIS anterolateral approach. date: 2015 publisher: BioMed Central id_scheme: DOI ppn_swb: 1653713623 own_urn: urn:nbn:de:bsz:16-heidok-194183 language: eng bibsort: INNMANNMORINFLUENCEO2015 full_text_status: public publication: BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders volume: 16 number: 180 place_of_pub: London pagerange: 1-7 issn: 1471-2474 citation: Innmann, Moritz Maximilian ; Streit, Marcus R. ; Kolb, Jeanette ; Heiland, Jochen ; Parsch, Dominik ; Aldinger, Peter R. ; Königshausen, Matthias ; Gotterbarm, Tobias ; Merle, Christian (2015) Influence of surgical approach on component positioning in primary total hip arthroplasty.
