摘要:
A method of providing a minimally invasive hip arthroplasty in conjunction with a main incision formed through a patient's skin and soft tissue in the patient's hip, including providing an instrument having a main body and an arrangement for guiding the formation of a portal incision and a small path to the patient's acetabulum along an impaction axis. A trocar is placed through a guide ring on an arm of the instrument to form the portal incision and small path. Impaction of an acetubular shell is carried out along the impaction axis thus formed.
