ABSTRACT:
A minimally invasive hip replacement surgical procedure that is also tissue preserving is disclosed. By making a superior incision, rather than a posterior incision, neither the posterior hip capsule, nor the gluteus medius or minimus are dissected. This results in improved post-operative results in the form of less dislocations and better healing.
