As early as the 19th century, Direct Anterior Approach (DAA) has been reported.

With the increasing number of minimally invasive orthopedic procedures in the past decade, this surgical approach has re-entered people’s vision.

As a true intermuscular approach, this minimally invasive small incision has become a new trend in Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA).

So, what is the key role of the powerful tool, the minimally invasive tungsten dissection needle electrode, in THA? Today, we will unveil the anterior approach of THA together with the editor.

The precision and precision of minimally invasive tungsten needles have always been one of the necessary sharp tools for high-difficulty surgery. Its ultra-fine tungsten tip travels through various intermuscular spaces.

It just provides convenience to doctors who are looking for a DAA approach.

The use of DAA approach and minimally invasive tungsten needles reduces complications, avoids intraoperative muscle damage, reduces postoperative pain, speeds up postoperative recovery, and achieves a better clinical effect of total hip replacement in orthopedic surgery.

So why is the THA anterior approach destined to choose minimally invasive tungsten needles as the best partner? We have to say a bit about their anatomical location:

There are not many palpable anatomical landmarks anterior to the hip joint.

Among them, the anterior superior iliac spine (ASIS) is the most palpable anatomical structure.

The highest anterior part of the iliac crest is the anterior superior iliac spine, where the sartorius muscle and inguinal ligament originate. At the midline, the pubic bone is palpable.
