Does the utilization of fluoroscopy affect the accuracy of prosthesis position in patients undergoing hip replacement surgery via the direct anterior approach compared to the posterolateral approach for an experienced surgeon? A single-center retrospective study

Does the utilization of fluoroscopy affect the accuracy of prosthesis position in patients undergoing hip replacement surgery via the direct anterior approach compared to the posterolateral approach for an experienced surgeon? A single-center retrospective study

Abstract Background The direct anterior approach (DAA) for total hip arthroplasty (THA) has gained popularity due to perceived advantages in achieving better early outcomes.
