ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
The most effective surgical approach for total hip arthroplasty (THA) remains controversial. Comparisons of surgical approach based on patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) have been limited to short- to mid-term outcomes or the comparison of only 2 approaches. The aim of this study was to compare PROMs for the 3 main approaches for THA with up to 10 years follow-up.METHODS:
A total of 906 patients who underwent primary THA at a single hospital between 2009 and 2020 through an anterior (312), lateral (211) or posterior (383) approach were evaluated using the Oxford Hip Score (OHS), EuroQoL-5-Dimension (EQ-5D-5L) and visual analogue scale/verbal rating scale for pain (VAS/VRS). PROMs were prospectively collected before surgery and routinely at 6 weeks, 6 months and 1, 2, 5 and 10 years after surgery.RESULTS:
There was no significant difference in demographics or comorbidities between the 3 groups. All 3 approaches resulted in a significant improvement in overall PROMs after THA, and plateaued after 6 months postoperatively, with no difference between the approaches (OHS, p < 0.01;EQ-5D-5L Index, p < 0.01;VAS/VRS, p < 0.01). The EQ-5D-5L mobility dimension showed that the lateral approach resulted in 20% more patients reporting problems with mobility than the posterior and anterior approaches at the 6-week, 6-month, 2-year and 10-year follow-up.CONCLUSIONS:
This study shows that all 3 common THA approaches substantially and similarly improve the OHS, EQ-5D-5L Index and VRS between 6 months and 10 years postoperatively. However, patient-reported mobility was poorer after a lateral approach and continued to be so at long-term follow-up.Palavras-chave
