Femoral components implanted through a direct anterior approach have higher postoperative anteversion compared to those implanted through a posterior approach in total hip arthroplasty
Femoral components implanted with a DAA had more mean anteversion than those implanted with a PA. Future studies should aim to investigate the effect of femoral component version on postoperative clinical outcomes.
