Fused hip conversion to total hip arthroplasty with the direct anterior approach: surgical technique on a regular surgical table under fluoroscopic guidance

ConclusionConversion from hip fusion to THA is a rare and complex procedure. The use of DAA with a standard table and fluoroscopy helps to avoid high complications since it allows a dynamic intra-operative examination of the range of motion to rule out impingements, reduces the risk of dislocation, and allows leg lengthening verification.
