[New technique for a hip arthrodesis using an anterior approach and a ventral plate].
The authors present a new technique for fusion of the hip joint through an anterior approach (Smith-Petersen) with the use of a ventral plate and a lateral compression screw. The indications for fusion of the hip joint are discussed and some cases are presented. The advantages of this technique are that strong bone stock for fixation is used on the pelvic side, that the abductor muscles and vascularization of the femoral head are left intact, and that no external fixation (cast) is routinely used for after-treatment.
