Learn the Benefits of a Frontal Approach

Also known as hip arthroplasty, a total hip replacement is a type of surgery that replaces a patient's hip joint with an artificial one. Your surgeon can approach this procedure from behind the hip, to the side of the hip or from in front of the hip. With an anterior approach the surgery is done from in front of the hip. Total hip replacement with an anterior approach is not an option for everyone, but it can provide an easier recovery for some patients.
