Abstract
Forty-nine patients undergoing 2-incision total hip arthroplasty were matched by age,
gender, body mass index, and comorbidity to patients undergoing a standard lateral
Hardinge approach. Hospital costs and charges were compared along with length of stay,
component position, and complication rates. Component position and complication rates
were identical for the 2 groups. However, hospital costs and charges were significantly
lower for the 2-incision group, as was length of stay.
