Anterior Approach Hip Replacement – Pros and Cons by Dr. North 2017

Total Hip Replacement Posted on October 1, 2017 by Patricia WalterMarch 31, 2018

Published on Aug 21, 2017  There’s the anterior approach, posterior approach, direct superior approach, anterolateral approach, direct lateral approach, among others.
