Comparing Postoperative Leg Length Discrepancy and Femoral Offset Using Two Different Surgical Approaches for Hemiarthroplasty of the Hip.

There was no significant difference between leg length and offset with the use of intraoperative fluoroscopy with DAA compared to no intraoperative imaging with ALA. Our study suggests that DAA and ALA are equally effective approaches for re-establishing symmetric leg length and offset in HHA for femoral neck fractures. In this study, the ALA had a shorter surgical time compared to DAA, potentially due to the utilization of intraoperative fluoroscopy for this particular technique during the DAA.
