Conditions

Osteoarthritis of the hip

Interventions

Patients in the study group will undergo THA using the minimally invasive single-incision anterior approach. This approach will be compared to the conventional posterolateral approach.

Anterior approach

Gait analysis

Posterolateral approach

Total hip arthroplasty

Eligibility

Age

18 Years to 64 Years

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: - Age between 18 - 90 years; - Indication for THA is primary or secondary symptomatic osteoarthritis

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: - A history of previous surgery on the ipsilateral hip; - symptomatic osteoarthritis of the contralateral hip; - a hip prosthesis at the contralateral side

Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
Measurements will take place preoperatively and 6 weeks postoperative. The main study parameter will be the ground reaction force (GRF) during the stance phase of the patients* gait. These forces give indirect information about the load in the hip joint during gait. Additionally, motion analysis measurements will be performed to assess the movement of the body during gait. Finally, electromyography (EMG) measurements will be performed to measure muscle activity during gait.	—
