Popis: Objectives:The aim of this study was to show the superiority of the minimally invasive techniques over standard techniques and any intraoperative change in incision length.Materials and Methods:There were 31 patients (8 males, 23 females) operated with the minimally invasive technique, who were defined as group 1 and 42 patients (11 males, 31 females) operated with a standard technique, who were defined as group 2. The hip function was evaluated with Harris Hip Score (HHS), the pain was evaluated with Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and general physical and mental status with Short Form (SF) - 36.Results:The mean follow-up period was 21.8 months (15-31 months) in group 1 and 58.5 months (42-75 months) in group 2.
