Overview
Brief Summary
Total hip arthroplasty is a method of choice for treating advanced osteoarthritis of the hip and one of the most frequent orthopedic procedures. Of all hip surgical approaches described, the tendency for minimally invasive techniques has been dominated over the last few years due to faster patient mobilization, reduced postoperative pain and need for blood transfusion. Two of the most common approaches used for minimally invasive total hip arthroplasty are: AMIS anterior approach and mini-posterior approach, which is a modification of the standard posterior approach. The purpose of this study is the biochemical, imaging and clinical evaluation of the tissue damage caused by the above-mentioned techniques of minimally invasive total hip arthroplasty.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Tissue damage change
Time Frame: Change from 6 to 24 and then 48 hours post-surgery
Investigate and quantify at the biochemical level with all available biomarkers the extent of tissue damage caused during a hip arthroplasty between different hip surgical approaches.
Secondary Outcomes
- Clinical Tests change(Change to clinical test from Day 2 to day 15 and then day 30 post-surgery)
- Imaging(Day 30 after surgery)
