Background Osteoarthritis and subsequent total hip arthroplasty (THA) lead to damages to
hip joint mechanoceptors, which in turns lead to impairments in proprioception. One of the …

The mechanical environment of the joint during dynamic activity plays a significant role in
osteoarthritis processes. Understanding how the magnitude, pattern and duration of joint …

Background Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) are frequently used for
evaluating patient satisfaction and function following total hip arthroplasty (THA). Functional …

Background The direct anterior approach (DAA) is a popular approach to total hip
arthroplasty (THA). Unlike the posterior approach, the importance of anterior capsular …

Background There is controversy in literature whether the direct anterior approach (DAA)
results in less muscle damage compared with the posterolateral approach (PLA) for total hip …

Primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) procedures continue to increase. On the basis of data
from 2000 to 2014, the frequency of THA in the US is projected to grow to 635,000 …

Background and Objectives: In the modified anterolateral minimally invasive surgery
(ALMIS) for total hip arthroplasty (THA), the intermuscular plane between the tensor fasciae …

Background The influence of total hip arthroplasty surgical approach on postoperative
recovery is not well understood and often debated. This study compares anterior and …

A hip prosthesis design with larger femoral head size may improve functional outcomes
compared to the conventional total hip arthroplasty (THA) design. Our aim was to compare …

Objectives Prosthesis awareness is the perception of foreign bodies, which has a critical
effect on the function of the prosthetic joint. In total hip arthroplasty (THA), the direct anterior …
