Medicine, Tokyo, Japan
Background:
·
PA
description
o
Patient
position is lateral recumbent
o
Surgical
method thought to be safer, provides wider visual field
o
Differences
in muscle strength and walking ability compared to the AP were limited to the
early post-op period; muscle strength at 6-12 months do not differ between PA
and AP
o
Gluteus
maximus is divided, short external rotators (ER) including the obturator
internus are detached
o
T-shaped
incision in the articular capsule, femoral head resected, prosthetic implanted
o
Short ER are
sutured to their original position as much as possible
