Direct anterior approach and dual mobility cup: the “head-first” reduction technique: a technical note and early case series

PurposeLess invasive direct anterior approach (DAA) and dual mobility cup (DMC) are increasingly adopted in practice over the last decade. Their use aims to reduce, as much as possible, soft tissue dissection and dislocation rate. This study aims to present a novel surgical technique to reduce a DMC prosthesis during a DAA easily.MethodsA mildly modified version of the direct anterior approach is proposed. When leg lengths, stability, …
