A Total Hip Replacement via a Direct Anterior Approach is a minimally invasive, muscle-sparing operation to replace a damaged hip. The Direct Anterior Approach limits the interference with nearby muscles and tendons, with evidence showing an earlier return to activity and less pain post-surgery.
A Robotic Total Hip Replacement is a patient-specific procedure to replace a hip affected by arthritis. It allows for pre-planning with individualised functional positioning of implants before surgery, and precision during surgery — with robotic arm-assisted bone preparation and implantation of components.

Revision Total Hip Replacement involves taking out one or more parts of an existing hip replacement and substituting them with new ones.
