When components are optimally positioned, the soft tissue is reconstructed well, and the mechanics are optimized, the incidence of dislocation after a first-time total hip replacement is very small. Fortunately, I have had only one patient out of thousands during the past six years who had a p...

21 This variability may reflect the type of prior SUI surgical treatment: prior retropubic procedures such as Burch or MMK may lead to retropubic scarring and a risk of bladder injury,22 whereas a prior transvaginal operation such as a Kelly plication wherein the retropubic space is not ...

Total hip arthroplasty (THA) can be performed by several approaches such as direct anterior (DAA), direct lateral (DL) and postero-lateral (PL). Our study was conducted to compare among different approaches, such as DAA, bikini (BK) and PL, the aesthetic impact of the scar, differences in...
