Revision Total Hip Arthroplasty Performed Through the Hueter Interval

Abstract

Revision total hip arthroplasty through the direct anterior approach is technically challenging but offers some advantages in exposure of the acetabulum. This study presents a retrospectively reviewed consecutive series of fifty-one patients who underwent revision total hip arthroplasty through the anterior approach utilizing various extensions of this technique. The anatomic approach is discussed as well as problems as encountered in our series.
