The purpose of this study was to investigate whether minimal invasive surgery (MIS) in elderly @entity1 with neck of femur @entity174 would reduce the peri-operative complications and improve the post-operative ambulation and length of hospital stay in his cohort of @entity1 . Forty elderly @entity1 were treated with either @entity572 ( @entity572 ) or bipolar prosthesis using MIS transgluteal approach. A matched reference group treated with a conventional surgical approach formed the control group. All procedures were performed by the same surgeon. Selection of acetabular component included Novae   uncemented press fit dual mobility concept socket or Bipolar Hemi-Arthroplasty (BHA). The femoral implant was Corail   uncemented stem or Fjord   cemented stem when primary instability was encountered. The follow-up was done for all @entity1 and its minimum length was more than thirty-six months. The average length of the skin incision was 7 (6-8) SD 0.7 cm. Eighteen @entity572 , twenty-two BHA, thirty-seven uncemented femoral stems and three cemented stems were implemented. The length of the procedure was the same as those of the reference group. The operative and post-operative @entity190 and analgesic use were significantly decreased in the MIS group. Radiographic implants positioning was similar amongst the two groups. No skin complication, no @entity281 , no @entity204 within ninety days and no dislocations were observed. MIS approach for implanting @entity572 after a @entity2249 in the elderly appears to be a reliable procedure.
