Product Overview
-In order to improve postoperative recovery, minimally
invasive total hip arthroplasty was developed.
Continued efforts to improve postoperative recovery
have led to subsequent refinements of these surgical
techniques. To maximize functional recovery, the
minimally invasive Anterolateral (Watson-Jones) hip
approach was developed to minimize the
postoperative dislocation rate while maintaining the
abductor strength.
-This minimally invasive Anterolateral (Watson-Jones)
hip approach uses the classic Watson-Jones interval,
but without detaching, cutting, or otherwise damaging
the abductor. As stated above, MicroPort Orthopedics
offers a streamlined instrumentation package for use
with the Anterolateral (Watson-Jones) hip approach.
