Arthroplasty and Reconstruction
myAO clinical roundup on hip arthroplasty
Hip arthroplasty remains one of the most successful and widely performed procedures in orthopaedic surgery, offering patients dramatic improvements in mobility, pain relief, and quality of life. With an aging population and rising surgical volumes worldwide, innovation in implant design, surgical approach, perioperative management, and revision strategies continues to reshape the field. Today, minimally invasive techniques, enhanced recovery pathways, and data-driven implant survivorship analyses are helping surgeons achieve more predictable outcomes while addressing growing demands for longevity and function.
In this edition of the clinical roundup on hip arthroplasty, we’ve curated the most relevant and trending videos, articles, and expert-led discussions from the myAO community—highlighting current best practices, emerging technologies, and evidence-based strategies for both primary and revision hip replacement.
