Apollo’s Direct Anterior Approach (DAA) Hip Replacement was announced in front of the media by Dr. Madan Mohan Reddy of Apollo Hospitals, Chennai.

There are people who suffer from continuous pain, limited mobility, and stiffness. This makes everyday activities like bending, walking, and even sitting very exhausting and uncomfortable. This happens due to hip conditions like osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, tumors in the hip joint, or osteonecrosis.

These conditions can hamper the daily lives of the people.

Hence, Apollo Hospitals Chennai has come up with this amazing new technique for Total Hip Replacement. This is a friendly and smart method for hip replacement surgery. No muscles are cut in the process. The hip joint is reached from the front.

Some of the benefits of this procedure are :

• Muscles are preserved.
• Easy mobility and quicker recovery of the patient.
• Less post-operative pain.
• Less noticeable and smaller scar.
• Good implant positioning with imaging.

Through this process, hip pain can be fixed quickly and smoothly.
