Aims. We wished to quantify the extent of soft-tissue damage sustained
during minimally invasive total hip arthroplasty through the direct
anterior (DA) and direct superior (DS) approaches. Materials and Methods. In eight cadavers, the DA approach was performed on one side,
and the DS approach on the other, a single brand of uncemented hip
prosthesis was implanted by two surgeons, considered expert in their
surgical approaches. Subsequent reflection of the gluteus maximus
allowed the extent of
