Abstract:Objective To explore the effect of hip arthroplasty in treating femoral neck fracture through di-rect anterior (DA) approach.Method Data of 197 cases (91 males and 112 females with age of 70.3(60-81) years) of hip fracture were retrospectively analyzed ,who were operated for arthroplasty by DA approach (n=104) or posterolateral (PL) approach (n=99).Among them 148 were injured from falling, 45 were from collision and 10 were from high falling .Indicators such as the length of the skin incision ,the time of operation ,blood loss,postop-erative weight bearing time and morbidity were recorded and evaluated .Results All the 197 cases were followed up.The follow-up time ranged from 12 to 20(16.5) months.The length of the skin incision ,the blood loss and post-operative weight bearing time all reached statistical significances between the two approaches .The time of operation and Harris score were not found to have statistical significance . Conclusion Compared with the PL approach group,the DA approach group has less trauma ,less blood loss and less bed stay .
