Replacing the damaged hip joint with a prosthesis, through a smaller incision in the front of the hip.

Anterior hip replacement
In anterior hip replacement, the surgeon accesses the joint through a smaller incision at the front of the hip, which can result in less pain and a faster recovery. During the procedure, damaged bone and cartilage are removed from the hip joint and replaced with an artificial prosthesis made of metal and plastic. This technique has become increasingly popular due to its potential benefits, such as less blood loss and faster recovery.
