Abstract
The technique of Direct Anterior Total Hip Arthroplasty (DA THA) has increased in popularity.The benefits of DA THA have been debated. One of the reported advantages has been the reduction in the complication risk of postoperative dislocation. The rate of dislocation in a single-surgeon DA THA patient cohort was assessed in this study.
