Muscle activation pattern during gait and stair activities following total hip arthroplasty with a direct anterior approach: a comprehensive case study
نویسندگان
چکیده
Muscle activation following total hip arthroplasty with a direct anterior approach has not previously been reported in the literature. This case report details the electromyography outcome of a 60-year-old male patient with unilateral direct anterior approach-total hip arthroplasty during walking and stair activities. Outcome reports the continuation of altered muscle activation 12 months postoperatively, even with a good clinical outcome.

Kinematics and Kinetics of Total Hip Arthroplasty Patients during Gait and Stair Climbing: A Comparison of the Anterior and Lateral Surgical Approaches
New surgical approaches for total hip arthroplasty (THA) are being developed to reduce muscle damage sustained during surgery, in the hope to allow better muscle functioning afterwards. The goal of this study was to compare the muscle sparing anterior (ANT) approach to a traditional lateral (LAT) approach with three-dimensional motion analysis. Kinematics and kinetics were obtained with an infr...

Introduction: Minimally invasive total hip arthroplasty (THA) is advertised to allow improved and faster rehabilitation due to reduced soft-tissue damage compared to THA performed with a standard transmuscular approach. The aim of this prospective Level II study was to analyze gait function after THA using 3 different approaches and 2 different types of prostheses. Patients and Methods: Ten pat...

BACKGROUND Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is in most cases improving patients´ life quality immediately after surgery. However, a closer look at these patients, especially with modern gait analysis methods, reveals also negative consequences due to the surgical approach related injury to the pelvic muscles. We hypothesized that this damage will have a negative impact on hip joint contact forces d...
