The anterior approach is the only approach that follows both an intermuscular and internervous path, potentially reducing the risk of damage to periarticular structures, including muscles, tendons, vessels and nerves. Potentially delivering patient-valued early outcomes such as faster mobilisation, reduced pain and shorter hospitalisation, this approach is supported by a full system of implants, instruments and training protocols.
