Abstract :
Hip geometry abnormalities found in patients with hereditary multiple exostoses (HME) could promote premature hip joint degeneration which needs treatment. We report the case
of a 45-year old male with right hip arthrosis who underwent
two-incision minimally invasive (MIS-2) total hip
arthroplasty (THA), with satisfactory outcome. This technique could be an alternative approach for performing THA in patients with hereditary multiple exostoses.
