For this study, 100 total hip arthroplasties (THAs) in a transtrochanteric approach group and 100 THAs in a posterolateral approach group were performed at one university hospital by a single, experienced surgeon. These THAs were then followed up for a minimum of 2 years to determine the incidence of postoperative complications. In our study, patients undergoing primary THA by the posterolateral approach were 18.4 times more likely to be complication free than patients in whom the transtrochanteric approach was used. This benefit, combined with a shortened surgical time, decreased blood loss, and technical ease, shows the advantages of the posterolateral approach for THA.

D000369 Aged, 80 and over Persons 80 years of age and older. Oldest Old
D015994 Incidence The number of new cases of a given disease during a given period in a specified population. It also is used for the rate at which new events occur in a defined population. It is differentiated from PREVALENCE, which refers to all cases in the population at a given time.

D016009 Chi-Square Distribution A distribution in which a variable is distributed like the sum of the squares of any given independent random variable, each of which has a normal distribution with mean of zero and variance of one. The chi-square test is a statistical test based on comparison of a test statistic to a chi-square distribution. The oldest of these tests are used to detect whether two or more population distributions differ from one another.

D016015 Logistic Models Statistical models which describe the relationship between a qualitative dependent variable (that is, one which can take only certain discrete values, such as the presence or absence of a disease) and an independent variable. A common application is in epidemiology for estimating an individual's risk (probability of a disease) as a function of a given risk factor.
