Total Hip Replacement: Anterior Approach
A total hip replacement is a type of surgery. It replaces your hip joint with an artificial one. It is also called hip arthroplasty. An orthopedic surgeon can do these procedures from behind the hip, to the side of the hip, or from in front of the hip. Total hip replacement with anterior approach refers to surgeries done from in front of the hip. These surgeries may also be called mini, modified, minimally invasive, or muscle-sparing surgeries.

Fractures
A fracture is a partial or complete break in the bone. Fractures most often happen when more force is applied to the bone than the bone can take. Overuse or repetitive motions can tire muscles and put more pressure on the bone. This causes stress fractures. This is more common in athletes.

Hip Resurfacing
Hip Resurfacing
Hip resurfacing is a type of surgery to replace a damaged hip joint. During hip resurfacing, your surgeon makes an incision to access your hip bone and thighbone. Next, he or she trims and caps your femoral head with a smooth metal covering. Your surgeon also removes the part of the damaged bone with the hip bone socket, replacing it with a metal shell.
