Capsular resection versus capsular repair in direct anterior approach for total hip arthroplasty: a randomized controlled trial
This report has been verified
by one or more authors of the
original publication.
This study has been identified as potentially high impact.
OE's AI-driven High Impact metric estimates the influence a paper is likely to have by integrating signals from both the journal in which it is published and the scientific content of the article itself.
Developed using state-of-the-art natural language processing, the OE High Impact model more accurately predicts a study's future citation performance than journal impact factor alone.
This enables earlier recognition of clinically meaningful research and helps readers focus on articles most likely to shape future practice.

OE Journal. 2021;9(6):6 Bone Joint J. 2021 Feb;103-B(2):321-328.Study Summary
One hundred and ninety osteoarthritis patients (n=219) scheduled for a total hip arthroplasty procedure performed via direct anterior approach were randomized to receive anterior capsule sparing (n=104 hips) or anterior capsule resection (n=115 hips). The outcomes of interest included function measured by the Harris Hip Score (HHS), the Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Score (HOOS) and associated sub-scores (i.e., activities of daily living; pain; quality of life; sport; symptoms), the Short-Form 36 (SF-36) quality of life survey, socket inclination and anteversion, femoral component coronal alignment, the incidence of radiolucent lines, response rate, and the incidence of adverse events (i.e., myalgia; lumbalgia; meralgia; intraoperative events; wound problems; psoas irritation; groin pain with psoas tendinitis). Outcomes were assessed 1 year post-operation. Results revealed no statistical significant differences between the two groups in all outcomes (p>0.05 for all).
