Surgical hip dislocation through a modified direct lateral approach: real-time perfusion monitoring

This study aimed to measure femoral head perfusion during hip resurfacing arthroplasty through a trochanter-sparing modified direct lateral approach. High-power laser Doppler probes were inserted into the femoral heads of 26 patients (26 hips, age range 35-70 years). Changes in blood flow were recor...
